Grow Pure Ginger at Home: Expert Sanjay Verma's Easy Pot Method

• Growing ginger at home in pots is easy, according to agricultural scientist Sanjay Verma.
• Select ginger with small sprouts ("eyes") and plant pieces with at least one sprout 2-3 inches deep in a well-draining soil mix (50% soil, 30% compost, 20% sand).
• Use a 7-8 inch pot initially, water only when soil is dry, and provide 3-4 hours of mild daily sunlight.
• Add organic fertilizer monthly; sprouts appear in 15-20 days, with harvest ready in 8-10 months.
• For faster sprouting, wrap ginger in moist tissue paper or store with onions in an airtight container before planting.
