August/September is fine. In fact you could put them in the ground anytime now. I did it a week back as a trial and I can see the eyes are very prominent. So the germination process has begun. I am in SE Qld.

hi .i live on the gold coast a back yard garden have set aside about 1 metre area for my ginger. i have spent the last 2 months mixing soil with leaf and grass clippings . light water system everyday. i went to my local green grocer and picked up some really nice ginger at a better price by 10 dollars a kilo. from main players ! today being 04/09/2021 i planted my ginger less than a inch down and then put organic sugar cane inch thick over the top then i put some blood and bone over the top . i hope i get some good ginger.i will let everyone know if it works out .fingers crossed

Buying ginger at Asian markets usually gives you bettrr shoot production than chain stores. In zone 5,6,7 start them indoors in large peat pots in February. By May they will be ready to go out, cover at night, frost does the real damage, short bursts of freezing temps will not kill the root. They sprout back quickly if fertilized aggressively.
