As ginger is a tropical plant you need to replicate those conditions as much as possible if that's not your conditions. Warmth and plenty of water are the keys. It would need protection in winter too.
Using a piece of fresh shop ginger plant it in a large pot with rich soil and just cover. HOPEFULLY shoots will soon appear. Keep in humid conditions and don't panic if it dies off in winter and then either does or doesn't reshoot again.
It may need some light.Please try to improve this text.
You can dry ginger by peeling it, slicing it thinly or grating it, then placing the shards in a dehydrator or on a mesh in a very cool oven (less than 100°F (40°C)) or in a warm, dry location in a room, turning it once daily until dry. At that point, you could use a spice grinder to produce your very own ground ginger. But it will suffer the same diminution of flavor you find with store-bought ginger. And, like store-bought, the longer you keep it around, the less flavor it will have. So don't make more than you can use within a few months.
put it in a jar filled with water in the fridge!
