Sonth (dried ginger) aur adrak dono hi jad-varg (root/rhizome) samajhe jaate hain. Jain dharma mein aam taur par kand-mool (root vegetables) ka sevan mana hota hai, kyunki:

• jad ko nikhāl kar puri paudha ko khatam karna padta hai, jo ahimsa ke viruddh hai
• zameen ke andar chhote jeev ya microorganisms par bhi asar padta hai

Isliye adrak ki jagah sonth ko bhi aksar mana jata hai, kyunki yeh bhi jad ya rhizome par aata hai. Halanki kuch log ya kuch parivaar alag samay ya sthiti mein iski anumati thoda alag tareeke se dekhte hain, par aam roop se dono ko root/underground vegetable maana jaata hai aur inhe nahi khaya jata.

Digambar aur Shwetambar dono mein aam taur par root vegetables ki manaai milti hai, lekin vyaakti ke guru ya kshetriya parampara ke hisaab se thoda fark ho sakta hai.
