Choose a spot with rich, well-drained soil, or use a large container filled with quality potting mix. Set the plugs at the same depth they were growing in their original container and water thoroughly after planting. Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow room for their clumping habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil consistently moist during the first few weeks while plants establish. Once established, water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Lemongrass benefits from a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. In cooler climates, grow lemongrass in containers so it can be brought indoors before the first frost. Harvest stalks by cutting them at the base when they are thick and mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 lemongrass plug plants (live Cymbopogon citratus).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50029203554401,"sku":"seed - lemongrass-432","price":35.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/0796\/7073\/files\/download_8c7b22b0-1a5f-474e-b37c-4a3e68f9accc.jpg?v=1793704595","url":"https:\/\/8storeseedsejahtera.store\/products\/5-lemongrass-stalks-plug-plants-live-cymbopogon-organic-herb","provider":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
