Apply organic mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Water regularly to keep soil consistently moist without becoming soggy, as overwatering invites root problems. During the growing season, feed with a balanced slow-release fertilizer every four to six weeks, then harvest mature stalks from the plant's base once they reach approximately half an inch in diameter. Remove yellowed or dead foliage regularly to stimulate vigorous new growth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1 Quart","offer_id":45814265381050,"sku":"21381","price":101.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/organic-lemongrass.jpg?v=1777509772","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/organic-lemongrass","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
