Humm, good question, Mary. I would assume that you have to wait until that rhizome grows laterally enough that you could take a section of the rhizome for kitchen purposes and leave a fair-size piece to continue to grow. I have never grown edible ginger, so someone else should have a better answer than my guess. Shrug! Much of what we purchase in grocery stores is either hybridized so that it won't sprout or is treated chemically so as to inhibit sprouting.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
