Harvesting Myoga Ginger

One thing I wanted to do when summer rolled around again was to make a short video showing how we harvest the Myoga Ginger as there seems to be a lot of interest in this plant and most examples on U-tube are mostly in Japanese.

So here’s the link. I hope you find it interesting and useful...

Harvesting is easy. The bulbs grow at the base of the plant at ground level. Sometimes you'll notice a flower shooting out the end of it. Using a sharp knife simply cut the bulb off. This may involve cutting below the surface of the ground to reach the base of the bulb.
