    I ordered two bottles! Yay! I was intensely watching this video. Enjoyed the process so much. I have ginger that I’ve grown for the first time and needed to know when to harvest (now!) and what to do with it. Mine will be a tiny fraction of your amount because I only have about six plants but I’m so excited. I loved watching Shauns face. As an older mother, I could tell he wanted to take off and do a happy dance. His eyes just sparkled. Melonie was more reserved but so beautiful and hard working! And side note girl, I love your nails! You young people are such a joy. In the prime of your lives and flying high. Make beautiful memories together.👩‍🌾💛🙏💙

    You Inspired me! I have 11 pots of ginger growing in my greenhouse, and knowing how to grow it and how to find a market is a part of Hubby and my retirement plan. We’re planning to grow as many our own veggies & fruits as possible AND grow seasonal cash crops, of which ginger is one. So I’m learning with these pots, and when I’ve learned what I need to know I’m reserving 16 -20 feet of my greenhouse beds for ginger every year.

    Wow I am amazed with all that ginger you didn't get flowers. I planted a small piece in a little shadow box. The stalks never grew very tall but I did get flowers. And I mean to tell ya ... That l shadow box was packed with ginger root. So I pulled it all out. And a couple months later I had five new plants growing back in that box. I must have left some really small pieces behind , idk as I thought I harvested all of it. This is a very prolific plant. I just broke off a small piece from one at the grocery store and now it seems I have lifetime ginger😁. So very cool 😎. Your plants are gorgeous. So tall and lush.

But I am looking forward to harvesting only have two pots of Ginger planted. I will be saving all the leaves to dehydrate to make ginger tea and some of the leaves as well for stir frys, because I know that the ginger leaves are edible. Now I know that they need a sandy soil which all of my Gardens have sand in them for drainage purposes but it also just helps a lot when I weed the gardens.

And my closest Kroger is an hour away across state lines, but it's worth every inch. I can't hardly wait to see how my harvest of white "sweet potatoes" (not as sweet/more for just a healthier version of "white potatoes") yields. I hope enough! ❤😇
    Now y'all should try your hand at growing turmeric! It's just as awesome and healthy. My arthritis and bursitis pain doesn't stand a chance, with turmeric on the job killing inflammation and if I grow enough I have found that it will even help dull the stinging pain of "INFLATION" for me and whoever wants it! Win, win! 😉👍🇺🇲

    Will you ship it to Canada? I can't enter the address on the forms.

    I am on different medicine, should we check with our pharmacist for any interaction?
