5 Tips How to Grow a Ton of Lemongrass at Home

[@christinenguyen2747]

You can cut the lemon stalks from the grocery to about 2 or 3 inches from the bottom. Let them sit in the water until a few new roots sprout out, then plant them 45 degrees, not upright. They will have thicker stalks, grow faster, and new baby stalks sprout out quicker.

[@ladyloungealot5119]

I have done that. A year or so later, I had to hire someone to remove it - it was humongous and massive. The commercial variety must be more robust. Next time I will keep it in a pot.

[@ellarussell8769]

I have always planted my store bought lemon grass in an upright position and they grow fine but the stalks are not large and they're not full and tall as Marcus has it. I'm gonna grow them at 45 degree angle this year. Thanks for sharing your tip Christine Nguyen

[@Sam-Icy]

@@ladyloungealot5119 thanks for the heads up. I just planted mine into a pot instead of my garden bed.

[@ladyloungealot5119]

@@Sam-Icy Good idea Sam! Unless you have a huge property, where I guess, lemongrass would make a massive hedge that you wouldn't worry about being... huge!

My husband has discovered the joy of gardening and we have enjoyed lovely home grown vegies over the past 12 months. I asked him about lemongrass and he sent me to your link. Apparently you are one of his favorite sources of information and I can see why. You are both ex army and both share a similar sense of humour. Thank you for your advice. It has gotten this fella of mine out into the yard, playing in the dirt and producing gorgeous food. Looking forward to my lemon grass teas and flavoursome food. From Cootamundra, NSW.

[@dyonnebanks9120]

The best lemongrass tea is a blend of ginger and lemongrass. Very good to drink daily in winter. Nice video.

[@emeraldkei]

In the Caribbean this is commonly called fever grass. When we are sick we make tea and this helps reduce the fever. And it really does grow like a bush in our yards

[@asmrslol848]

I drink all year around growing up in Jamaica 😂

[@AdMBandLeader]

Over here in Assam, India, tea planters use lemongrass as a fencing around the huge lengthy garden boundaries which serves also as a deterrent to snake invasion and infestation inside gardens.

[@LadyVoldemort]

My families in the countryside do the same too, they plant them on the edge of their lands (as fence substitute) to keep venomous animals and bad bugs away. We may learn it from the Indians a long time ago! 😊👍❤ (I live in Sumatra, Indonesia!)

[@79klkw]

Brilliant tip!!! This is why reading comments is so valuable, in my opinion. I am worried about mice attracting snakes, in our barn, this is a wonderful repellent idea, and I will be sure to try it.

[@JUSTENization]

Tip #N, lemongrass also is planted around the houses or as fences to deter wild beasts such as tigers in southeast Asia countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Sumatra etc., in rural areas such as countryside and hills and mountainous landscapes. Typical Asian family cooking use lemongrass so often, we are accustomed to it. Yes, I was born in Vietnam and still cooking with lemongrass everyday ❤. Thought I’d shared.

[@istudios225]

It does indeed repel mosquitoes. But you need to bruise the leaves to release the essential oils to get the repellant effect. Pick a bunch of leaves and scrunch them or twist them and lay them near where you are working. Or, after doing that, rub your hands, which will have residual lemongrass oil, over your arms, legs and face.

[@georgemoore7196]

Hah! Great video. We are in northern California, grow zone 8. My wife is from Vietnam. A year ago, she purchased lemon grass in a local market and simply planted it in our back yard. Not only did it grow like crazy, it survived last winter. This past summer, we planted more. We had a summer of 40 C degree days. The more we watered, the more it grew. We now have an entire row of lemon grass. We cut it back all the time for use in tea and soups but the plants come right back. What a satisfying discovery. :-)

[@moileboi2947]

Sounds like heaven. You must have wonderful soup all the time

[@nm3547]

Whats your favorite recipe? I had 2 small stocks and 1 died. 1 seems to be surviving, and I'm hoping it'll grow over time before I lose both. 🤞 Whats your favorite recipe and does yours get full sun, part shade, or ?

[@MarsM13]

I like to cook a lot of Thai food, but they don't sell lemongrass at the local grocery store, so I need to buy it online, making it one of the most expensive ingredients. So this video is really useful to me. I just bought a thousand lemongrass seeds for a little over a dollar and fifty cents. If it grows successfully in my backyard, this will instantly go from one of my most expensive ingredients to my cheapest. Thank you very much for this video. :-D

[@glow1815]

If you live in a state or area with Cambodians, Vietnamese and Thai community there's always Asian stores with Lemongrass available always. Because we use a lot of Lemongrass besides for Curry. But of course if we don't live in your area there wouldn't be stores there.

[@MarsM13]

@@glow1815 I've been growing my own lemongrass for years. In addition to using it when making certain Thai dishes, I boil it to make tea.

[@adsmorriss]

When you buy it from the store, you can grow more from it. They often have the root removed before it gets to market, which can be regrown, but you can chop the bottom .5 to 1 inch and sit in water. An easy rooter. Plus, they split easily. I have never been able to get the seed to grow for me. But don't be discouraged. I bought 1 stalk lol last fall. I don't have a batch yet (zone 55 so my baby is in a pot) but i got a cup of tea from trimming its leaves. You can do it!

[@79klkw]

I moved from NY to rural Virginia, and no lemongrass here, either! Strange, I can't find all sorts of stuff here in VA, at the supermarket, however, there are other foods that I never had seen, like cherrwine soda, and country ham, boiled peanuts...and weird meats. I guess every region has its local favorite food to stock! I miss having lots of ethnic foods to choose from, and certain stuff in NY, but that's about it! I don't miss the traffic! I like the idea of actually growing my lemongrass, anyhow

Marcus, we grow it all year round, we live in the hot tropics, our soil is clay and it loves wet feet! Bit opposite to your tips but maybe different in your climate. We use it for fence lines and drains to filter and slow the water flow. You can sit it in water to start the roots or jut put it straight in the ground.

[@LadyVoldemort]

I live in Sumatra Island (Indonesia, tropical climate). Yes I agree with you, here we're also stick lemongrass in any DAMP soil and they will grow abundantly without any care needed. People planted them in public gardens/ponds so anyone in need can always take them for home cooking/medicinal purposes (personal/non-commercial use of course). It's believed to be some venomous animals and bad bugs repellent as well. I love using them the most in curries and stir-fries recipes. 🤤👍❤

[@Metqa]

I grow lemongrass in pots mostly for the leaves to make tea occasionally, but you've inspired me to put some in the ground. I've got a weedy, clay bound yard that seems to grow only plaintain, dandelions, clover and something sharp and pokey... I'd love to grow a border plant that was also edible. I thought about basil, but I like the idea of the lemongrass. I live in zone 7b so we get hard freezed a couple of times a year, so I guess I could pull it all out, and just replant it. I didn't know the leaves could be used as mulch. I'll consider that once I have an abundance. And I hope deer don't like to eat it. That is another reason I am balked in my garden expeditions , deer eat all of my progress and it's very depressing to do all that hard work just to discover it destroyed overnight.

I buy them $1/bundle at Asian markets. Cut 3/4 of top off, stick the stalks on the ground. I get fresh lemongrass June-October in the Midwest (US) zone 5. I use the leaves tied up in bundles or a few 3" stalks with a few kaffire lime leaves as soup base especially fresh chicken soups. Also, I use stalks as skewers when doing bbq. You can also use chopped/minced stalks in marinades for pork and chicken.

[@yodabeeshdc8275]

Is this considered an invasive species (similar to bamboo) that can grow out of control? We’re thinking about planting for cooking, but also for mosquito repellent.

[@Foodie_888]

Not invasive. For a container, I would plant 3 stalks (5-6 inch stalks) per 5 gallon container. You can root the stalks in a cup of water (cut off the hard end of the stalks, cover 1-2" in water and should root in 5-8 days).

[@deannastevens1217]

[@miriammcfarlane6972]

As it's a grass I wondered about your comparison with lucerne, a legume whose roots have nitrogen-fixing bacteria. A quick search on the internet shows lemongrass to be a nitrogen-hungry plant, so I guess if you've fed it the correct fertiliser to grow well, it will then have nitrogen in it to use as a mulch around trees.
