Good luck! I heard that it grows naturally along mountain streams and like constant flowing water. If you can pull it off that would be amazing! That fake dyed stuff is awful, real wasabi is incomparable
How in the world do you keep in growing in the summer? I’m in SE Texas & I’d have to rig a big cooler with a grow light, ice, & a fan to keep it cool & misty 😂😂😂
While i have had wasabi at a restaurant i have never bought it myself but since i live in an area that probably wouldn't sustain wasabi, I found a little substitute that i personally think tastes quite similar and is easy to grow. You just have to start about 7 to 10 days before you want it for sushi. Its Japanese Red Mustard microgreens or sprouts. They have a sharp wasabi twang in your sushi. They are not quite as potant as real freshly ground waabi but they taste better than tube wasabi. Plus if you grow them in your rotation often they are great on sandwiches and stirfries. Sorry was typing in the car. And ai autocorrect kinda hosed me
I'm pretty sure wasabi is a rhizome plant and it is also a Semi-Aquatic plant that requires well draining and gravelly soil with constant flow of water, so i dont think they would do good in soil pots

Ill try here in PA, send me some seeds. I dont eat much sushi and you can have most of whatever grows
Gotta find a way to mimic that cold, misty mountain stream! Good luck!
Sounds like and onions in 5 years I've only grown it successfully twice
I love that you don't give up!
I tried it and failed twice also 🙁
Well that was inspiring. I'm having the same luck with tomatoes and luffa. They really shouldn't be this hard to grow 😅
Where do you get your wasabi’s seeds?
Far over… 🎶
So where do you put them during the warm seasons?
If anyone can do it, it's you Kevin!
250 for a kg isn't that much think how many you would have to grow before you rake in
Hey dude we're did you get them tops for them pots from
Please link the site
Maybe get a beverage fridge use the 1 with the glass door for sunlight & set the temperature just right & mist them daily
I have a friend who grows this commercially. He grows it in a fresh mountain spring in Washington State. It seems to like it there.
Misting everyday for three years…? I believe your time is worth more than that. I'd rather pay the 250. A kg is A LOT of wasabi.
Dude, I'd trust you more if you could pronounce chamomile. Lol 😆
You should plant them in a stream
Meanwhile, my grandma tosses anything out the backyard window, and it grows like nothing.
For me toughest plant to grow is turkey berries, I swear to God they never grow😂

how is wasabi harvested? is it a bulb like onions, radish, carrots, etc.?
Maybe i should try this since im in mt near Canadian border :/
I love that you admit your failures. That genuine curiosity to improve keeps me coming back to your channel.
Looking at a horseradish and calling it fake wasabi is misleading. It's like calling someone a clown before they paint their face.
You probably need a chilled hydroponics system.
Try looking for an aquarium cooler for cold water fish.
What did the bee say to his friend?
Wasabee
I’ll see myself out 😂😂
Can you purchase a hydroponic water chiller system and set up a stream bed of rock and whatever soil they need and do a recirculating system?
IDK, it used to be everywhere, selective breeding gone wrong?
Naaah, it won't work in SD. Too hot
I need to talk to my family in Kentucky about the Creeks near their house
Wouldn't hydroponic be ideal for this?
