    わさび!😳
    I can't speak English.
    trust delicious peel😊💦
    皮ごと刷りおろして食べるのが一番美味しいです。日本でもあまり知られていません。

      2557carla Hey there, its doing really well, the plants have doubled and plus some in size, and I think are starting the beginnings of growing a rhizome! Which is what I'm after really... Il put an updated video up later in the summer to show you. Thanks for watching.

    Hi, I have purchased some wasabi plug plants and am unsure if I should put them outside or not? Did your plants manage to survive the the colder temperatures during winter?

    Pebble is to keep soil oxygen rich for the root. So hydroponics is better than earth culture. Water temperature is best between 54~60F and moist around 90%. Keep 70~80% sun shed. Mountain spring water is best for its rich minerals cleanness. Add some sulfate base organics (volcanic soil) would boost growth. The air temperature difference between day and night is 5~10 degree C. Nutrient N:P:K:=1:1:1.
    Avoid transplant from March to July because the wasabi grows slowly, it may not be able to survive with little leaves.
    Taiwan has very good tech of growing in the plain rather in the mountain.

    Hi! Thank you for such a useful video. I have had mine for a year now in a pot using compost as the growing medium. Only lately it is beginning to show signs of wilting and I’m slightly worried about its survival - not sure if this is due to the cold. Do they get dormant in the winter? It is currently placed in a patio and west facing. Your knowledge will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi, I would like to ask how are your wasabi plants? I'm thinking of growing my own one thus I would like to ask if you have any tips after a year of experience with growing wasabi? Would you do sth differently than shown on your film?

      Hi, the plants are doing great! They are currently in flower, and am hoping to harvest some of the stem in a month or so!!! So far there's nothing I'd change given the location to grow them, it's the best I could achieve. They have really grown a lot! The only thing I would say is not to overwater them. Because they are in the ground you have to treat then a bit different the river grown wasabi. Il be putting a wasabi taste and harvest video up very soon! Are you planting some? Chris

    • @CouveWilmor

      I'm thinking about it but till now I haven't found plants in Poland where I live. So I'm thinking of importing them, maybe even some seeds from Japan to grow wasabi from the seed. Looking forward to your taste&harvest wasabi video a lot. One more thing - during this year did you feed those plants with any additional compost or fertilizer? Tomek

    • @gotropicaluk8362
      @gotropicaluk8362  8 років тому

      +CuveeWilmor no I haven't fed them with anything... Just what was in the compost when I planted them... Hope your plant search is successful as I've found them very easy to grow!

      Lawrence Toms I haven't so far... but I do go out some evenings and check a number of young plants with a torch for slugs and snails. They end up in the chicken run! I think the peppery flavour of the leaves puts them off, or maybe the shingle keeps them at bay. I prefer to remove slugs and snails, rather than use slug pellets, as I have other animals around the house.
