Growing Ginger Inside And Other Experiments

By on March 11, 2026

This past winter, I attempted to grow ginger inside our home.

At first, it was growing very well. I was super excited. It appeared as though this experiment would be a success.

Then the weather turned cold.

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I keep our average home temperature at 16.5C/62F.

This, we discovered, is too cold for ginger. The plants decided the growing season was done and they…died.

Our growing ginger inside our home experiment failed.

And this is what gardening is – an experiment. We try something. It might have worked for other gardeners but our growing conditions are a little bit different and it might not work for us. Or it might work ever better!

We don’t know until we try it.
