💦 Step 4: Watering – The Make-or-Break Step
- Right After Planting: Lightly moisten the soil.
- Before Sprouting (2–6 weeks): Keep the soil damp but not soaked. A gentle misting every day or two will keep the ginger happy and avoid root rot.
- After Sprouts Appear: Once you see a green shoot emerging, increase watering, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist — like a damp sponge — but not soggy.
🌱 Step 5: Let It Grow!
Be patient — ginger takes its time. Once the first shoots appear (typically 2–6 weeks after planting), the plant will begin to grow tall, leafy stems that resemble young bamboo. Continue to care for it, ensuring it gets the right amount of water and light. Soon, your ginger plant will grow lush and healthy! 🌿
