Eating a piece of ginger in summer is better than taking tonic! It can grow if you put it in a pot, and you can harvest 10 kilograms from a small piece!

What are the benefits of eating ginger in summer?

1. Ginger and brown sugar water: prevent heat stroke and air-conditioning disease

Using air conditioning frequently in the summer will cause air-conditioning disease over time, such as fever, cold, diarrhea, etc. At this time, you can drink some ginger and sugar water to promote sweating and blood circulation.

Cut the ginger into shreds or small pieces, put it into a pot, add water and bring to a boil, then add brown sugar and cook for about 10 minutes. Drink it while it is hot. Do not wait until it cools down before drinking it, as the effect will not be very good.

2. Pickled ginger in vinegar can enhance appetite and strengthen the spleen and stomach

It is easy to lose appetite and eat in summer. The gingerol contained in ginger can stimulate the taste nerves, thereby increasing appetite, strengthening the spleen and stimulating the appetite.

Cut the ginger into slices, put it into a clean plastic bottle, pour in aged vinegar, seal it, and you can eat it after about a week!

How to grow ginger in summer?

Since ginger has so many benefits, why don’t you plant one at home, flower lovers?

1. Germination

Go to the vegetable market to buy fresh ginger, pick out the stronger ginger pieces, take them home and place them in moist sand, and they will sprout in about 3-5 days.

2. Prepare the soil

Wash the eggshells and expose them to the sun. Grind them into powder and mix them with coal slag and peat soil in a ratio of 1:1:2 to make loose and breathable nutrient soil.

3. Put the sprouted ginger into the pot

It is best to choose a wider flowerpot and bury the sprouted ginger about 3-5cm in the soil. Note that the sprout eyes of the ginger must face upwards.

4. Places with good diffuse light

Place the flower pot in a well-diffused light location indoors and ensure the soil is moist. After about 2-3 weeks, you can see the ginger sprouts emerging from the pot, and now you can give it appropriate direct light.

5. Daily maintenance

When the ginger sprouts grow a little bigger, you can move the flowerpot to the south balcony. Water it when you see the surface of the soil in the pot turn white. Remember to spray water more often to ensure sufficient air humidity. The ginger will grow taller soon!

6. Harvesting ginger

After another 2-3 months, when you see the leaves of the ginger gradually turn yellow and begin to fall off, don't worry, as this proves that the ginger is mature. At this time, dig the ginger out of the flowerpot and you can harvest a large pot!
