Yes, you can grow baby ginger.
Baby ginger is simply immature ginger, harvested earlier than fully mature ginger. According to available information, the cultivation time required for baby ginger is approximately half that of mature ginger.
Here's a breakdown:
- Cultivation Time: Mature ginger typically requires 8-12 months to grow. Baby ginger, on the other hand, only needs about half that time.
- Growing Conditions: Ginger, including baby ginger, can be grown in high tunnels, as seen in Georgetown and Newark.
- Plant Size: The height of ginger plants varies depending on the amount of shade they receive. Shaded ginger plants can grow to be 2-4 feet tall, while those grown without shade reach 1.5-2.5 feet.
In summary, you can definitely grow baby ginger, and it requires a shorter cultivation period compared to mature ginger.
