Turmeric leaves can be added to desserts like rice pudding because of its aromatic flavour. I grow turmeric specially for the leaves

@av1421 8 месяцев назад

also the leaves can go into tea too!

@anettee.1805 6 месяцев назад

@snowpeasophiesprout698 5 лет назад

you can also store the turmeric by drying it in the sun, and then storing it in a bucket of sand. awesome video, you're an absolute legend :)

No. You boil it, then sun dry. That's how we do in Asia (india and other countries)

I live in the US, in area of Minnesota which can go to -45 F or -42.78 C. I grow mine in a pot, that I keep indoors all year long. It grows very well and I don't water it often to prevent it from dying of over watering. It gets larger every year. I had to buy it the first piece online, because where I live it's not sold. Almost forgot, I keep in a room that gets a lot of sun year round.

Hey Mark, just harvested my first crop of garlic and am very impressed. The plant was very beautiful and gave my garden a real tropical feel. I received lots of compliments and folk were astonished to hear that it was Turmeric. I was going to grow chilies in the same position next and try the Turmeric in another location. Cheers!

@Squirrlys 5 лет назад

I think what I love best about your videos is you constantly plant companion plants together. Or just have herbs with your tomatoes and using small spaces to grow multiple types. Whereas many other garden videos do huge long rows of the same veggie. Just makes more sense making things a bit more loose and companion like.

@lisabooker6405 7 лет назад

Oh my goodness! I didn't realize how BEAUTIFUL the actual plant is. It's stunning!!! I'm definitely going to try and grow it next year. I have serious health issues that cause extreme inflammation and use turmeric powder. I really want to save money and grow my own. Now I'm even more excited to do it seeing your beautiful plants. Turmeric, ginger, honey and a dash of fresh cracked black pepper makes a nice tea and really helps! Many thanks from Ohio, USA! ~Lisa

@Selfsufficientme 7 лет назад

Hey Lisa! Yes it is a stunning plant and it really looks great in the garden plus the green frogs love hiding in the foliage so it's a winner for everything really. I'll have to try your tea recipe - thank you :)

Lisa Booker you can get turmeric for about 4$/400 grams or so in some Indian grocery store. Not that expensive. We generally put about 1/2 teaspoon in every vegetable we make or even boil in milk 1 cup & 1/2 teaspoon & honey

I keep looking for a crock in the yard lol !! I use course sand and till it into my clay soil along with a mulch from our local saw mill in early spring. Makes a huge difference, also I have peach trees on the West side of the garden to keep the plants from baking all day in the sun. My railroad ties stacked around the garden helps keep out pest, knocks down the wind, and keeps the sun out on the West side. I bury my left over veggies about a foot down, this really brings on the red worms. Which enriches the soil. Often I use cut firewood logs along the south side of my garden rows to keep the sun from overheating and drying out the soil. Happy gardening and lets grow.

I didn't know how beautiful and lush the plant is. Gorgeous flowers, like some ornamental gingers. We grow ginger in our greenhouse, and it lives over winter. Our winter is long and cold (often negative 20F), but the greenhouse does not freeze. I'm going to try turmeric, even though it's tropical. Some tender plants don't overwinter, even in there. Mango started, but didn't make it. Others do... we grow and harvest lemons, have three+ year old tomatoes and herbs, and recently got a banana corm that is growing well, so we'll see how that does.

Thanks again Mark. Just learned about the health benefits of turmeric and will try to grow some in the greenhouse this year. And where was my starting point? You, of course!

This guy made me smile. Can’t grow turmeric very well in Utah (zone 5). But this was fun to watch. Maybe someday when we buy a second home in Costa Rica! Thanks for the smiles.

Excellent presentation as always M8! My interest in Turmeric is of a medicinal nature - and much of its benefit there is argued back and forth depending on who we hear from, but it seems to be a standard agreement amongst those seeking to cure and/or prevent GOUT (the worst nightmare of all Scottish Lairds I expect) that Turmeric Curcumin is right up there with pure unsweetened cherry juice as one of the most effective cures besides gulping down buckets full of plain water to undo any dehydration - which is the main cause of Gout alongside of eating or drinking the wrong things. Regardless what medical professionals might say it has a track record with people who have actually experienced Gout, and as with spices I cannot help but think that the raw, pure root straight out of the garden has got to be a lot better and stronger than anything available at a store. Definitely better and stronger than anything we might find (and pay a ton for) in capsule form from some silly supplement center... ~Cheers!
