    "Lemongrass" Tangad or Tanglad in Cebuano

    I really love to cook and I love plants. I've been wanting to have a lemongrass here for some of my recipe needs it. So when we bought some asian goods at Wing Yep, I saw this lemongrass stalks without roots and place them in a glass with about an inch of water. A week after or so, I noticed about 2 of them started sprouting roots. So im happy and excited to plant them and hopefully they'll survive.
    Always look on the bright side of life

    You could try the same with ginger, sometimes it works too

    You'll get some decent results if you keep them inside on a sunny window shelf.
    But they won't display the same vigorous growth as in PI

    yeah i have 2 different kind of chillies i guess, bell peppers and the spicy ones, i love spicy foods and my husband too.

    @fred
    I have 3 stalks so far with small roots on it, still waiting for a few more weeks before ill move them to the pots coz they still look fragile. I hope it works really if not the we will try buying seeds from eBay.

    @terpe

    Ill keep you posted how it goes soon when i pot them.
