All the plant gossip, through the grapevine. Pun intended
Fertilizer/ feed for the plant:Fertilise your Lemongrass with a generic fertiliser once every two weeks throughout the year other than winters, You can also use a handful of compost every 20 days for a good growth.
Repotting : Lemongrass does not require frequent repotting, repot the plant in spring once the roots are visible over the topsoil (once in two years) in a rich but well-draining soil.
Propogation : Lemongrass can be propagated via division. Each leaf fan is attached to bulb like base, simply separate the bulbs and plant it in different pots. At least 5-6 bulbs in a single pot is a safe route to go.
Why is my Lemongrass drying up?
Drying Lemongrass can be either due to too much direct light or too little moisture.
2. When to water my Lemongrass?
Touch the soil of your potted Lemongrass, if the top inch feels dry to touch water it thoroughly and let it drain away.
3. Why is my Lemongrass breaking away at the stem?
Limp Lemongrass is a direct indication of overwatered plant. The limp stem means root rot. Unpot the whole plant and see if any part is salvageable and pot it in fresh, dry, well-draining soil.
Light Requirements :The Lemongrass is excellent for balconies, shaded patios or indoor areas near south or west facing windows with ample indirect sunlight. The plant loves humidity but do not let it sit in soggy soil.
Locations :Native to Southeast Asian tropical climates, it loves light and humidity. Add it to your windowsills or use it as a part of plant cluster, it will thrive with little care. It makes for excellent windowsill plant with its lush grass like appearance.
Styling/decor tip :With its thin blade like leaves that arch beautifully from the ground, the Lemongrass provides the much needed contrast of shape in your urban jungle. Plant it in the sunniest corner of your room for a constant fresh fragrance and to ward off mosquitoes to a large extent. They look excellent in circular pots that contrast with their foliage shape. Planters on tall stands are also great options for lemon grass to trail down.

To harvest leaves just snip of the top of the leaves, but to harvest stems, use a hand trowel to remove individual stalks, roots, and all. Use immediately or refrigerate for later.
The most obvious culprit is underwatering. Keep it in bright indirect light and maintain good humidity and a moist soil.
No, lemon grass is a non-invasive species.
