So today i harvested my ginger. I kept maybe 5 pieces. The rest that had good roots i replanted to triple next years harvest. It may seem like i didnt get much, so keep in mind i replanted a lot and all the stalks are also edible. First photo is of the roots i kept.
Here they are after i trimmed ofd the stalks and washed them. I still have to process the stalks.
What ive learned:
I would let the ginger grow for two years in an indoor greenhouse before harvesting for best results. However, staggering your plantings will allow for all year harvesting.
Also, a veggie scrubber will easily get the dirt off the roots.
Here's the stalks after processing. I will dice, dehydrate, and blend into a powder.
This amount filled a five tier dehydrator.
