-professor sprout is awesome. if you look up to her try this:
-  how to grow a ginger plant
-     Find and purchase a firm, fresh, healthy ginger root from a health food store or a regular grocery store.
-Step 2Cut a two inch piece of the ginger root. Stick wooden toothpicks in the root on both sides of it so that the toothpicks suspend the ginger root horizontally on the rim of a drinking glass.
-Step 3Fill the drinking glass with water until the root is submerged in the water about a third of the way up.
-Step 4Remove the ginger root from the glass when roots have sprouted and grown about an inch in length.
-Step 5Fill a pot that has the surface of at least four times the size of the root with a good quality, moist potting soil about three quarters of the way full. The pot must have drainage holes in the bottom.
-Step 6Place the root flat in the soil and cover it with about an inch of potting soil. Water the plant regularly without saturating the soil.
-Step 7Place your plant in a sunny place. When the root begins to sprout, move it to an area that gets a lot of indirect sunlight.
