How to grow ginger on the balcony at home
1, put the sand on the balcony for three or four days, and turn it over with a small shovel every day to ensure that the solar energy completely shines on the soil and mix the sand together. Dig some places downstairs in the community and sprinkle with fermented chicken manure. You can use 1 part sand and 3 parts garden soil, and fermented chicken manure can be used as base fertilizer.

2. Cut the ginger into small pieces, about 3-4 pieces is enough. If it's a flowerpot, planting 2 pieces is enough. The foam box is relatively large, so you can grow more. You can plant about 4 pieces, and you will get more.

3. The ginger slices are ready. There are two planting methods. One is to dry the cut ginger slices and plant them directly in the soil. The other is to let ginger sprout before planting. Put the ginger slices in a bowl, pour a little water and keep them in the shade. Wait for the ginger slices to germinate by themselves, and then plant them after germination.

4. Plant the sprouted ginger slices in the soil to expose a little bud, and pour the soil thoroughly with a watering can until the water flows out from the drainage hole at the bottom of the flowerpot. Put the planted flowerpot on the balcony and get as much sunshine as possible.

5. The early growth of ginger in soil is very slow. Don't worry, give it as much sunshine as possible, and spray water every three days to increase the humidity of the soil. It takes about 20 days for ginger to grow branches.

6. When the leaves grow out, they will grow quickly. Use fertilizer once every half month, just flower fertilizer, or potassium dihydrogen phosphate fertilizer, apply it thinly and sprinkle it on the edge of the flowerpot.

7. Pay attention to light in future maintenance and management. The higher the temperature, the easier the ginger grows. The soil in the flowerpot should always be moist.

8. You can harvest in three months. Dig out the ginger in the flowerpot and cut off the branches and leaves to eat.
