Thanks for the supplement

[@AdreamlyfeByMichelle]

Thanks for this! I’ll need an acre to feed my turmeric needs. we only hv 5 warm months (if that) in NYC. The markets are over charging like crazy for turmeric. It’s criminal ! ugh

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Fortunately it is easier to grow than Ginger, good luck! Hare Kṛṣṇa!

[@turbonbc]

Earth worm castings are also very healthy if you feed them organic matter that is one of the best soil mediums next to cow dung.

I never thought of raising turmeric in home, but after seeing your video.... I should give a try.. Also as you rightly said turmeric powder should not be purchased from the grocery store.... It should be prepared in home... Hare Krishna..

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Oh yes, its very easy, just need some cow dung. And ginger is also very easy like that, video coming soon! Hare Kṛṣṇa!

[@letscarpethisdiem1988]

Turmeric is so expensive where I live so I bought a small piece from whole foods and I've been growing it every since. I want to say it runs about $20-30 a pound. The piece that I got was about $7. It was smaller than the palm of my hand, maybe even the size of my thumb. It's grown into a beautiful plant now and has a bunch of roots.

[@desertgardener777]

Can you replant the bulb part (the piece at the end that you broke off tubers from) with all the fibrous roots attached. Will that part grow more tubers? Or is it best to plant a new tuber?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Yes, it is better to replant the bulb, both can grow fine. I simply reuse the bulbs every year.

Hare Krishna! Very useful and informative vdo. I had grown once however, as we had to travel out had to leave it outside. Will try to grow again now as i have few Turmeric roots however, i had kept in fridge. Also, please inform whether i have to grow it in a small pot first initially then trf to a bigger one and the watering cycle to this plant and whether we can keep it indoors. Thank you very much.

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hello Ganesh, Hare Kṛṣṇa! No need to start in a small pot, but it helps if you have little space. Doesn't make much of a difference if you start where its going to grow normally, I just put a lot of leaves on top as mulch so that other weeds don't grow. Yes, can be done indoors, but does need sunlight.

[@batyahjones5763]

is it possible to grow them from dried roots? and what about the weather conditions? where I live during winter the temp. falls -10c with little sunshine and in summer the temp. is arround +30c with lots of sunshine. Is it possible for me to grow turmeric in the house considering these conditions?

[@kishormedhe9204]

Please tell me where are you located

[@thunderlord2200]

how long does it take to start rooting, i just bought mine from the store and it has buds on it, so i wonder how long before i think its not growing?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Once the buds start, then shoots take a month, then another month to see lots of leaves. It is slow to start, then it grows to full size and stays that way for a while.

[@MonicaDias-cv8go]

When is the right time to grow turmeric. And when should we water the turmeric

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Easiest is to start in the spring. Water depends on your weather, easy to see if the plant needs water.

[@rakshana7955]

Hats off

[@silverspaceflyer]

Good one!

[@brandonduet7771]

only turmeric i can find is in the refrigerator section at the store. can I still grow these?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Yes, as long as it is not boiled.

Sir, please tell me if I should keep the growing plants in full sunlight, partly sunlight, or in shade. I am going to sow the rhyzomes, that are" budding", so the information is vital for me please let me be informed. Best regards.

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hare Kṛṣṇa! I have grown both in full sun and partial shade successfully. They prefer a little bit of shade, they are not really full sun plants. They do best when the soil is really really nice.

[@rashedazahura3874]

Thank you, sir.

[@hjtiong]

what soil do u use ??? pls spell it here ~~ coz cant hear properly in the video thanks

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Cow dung soil :) 100% cow dung that has been dried. More examples here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYmlmIysnaaerLc

[@rebeccaspratling2865]

The Vedic Way thank you so much for clarifying. I couldn't understand your beautiful accent. 😍❤️ I love your channel. So much valuable information.

[@SanjayGupta02887]

Can we use Cocopeat, Vermiculite and Perlite for growing Turmeric? I'm getting very good results with this combination while growing vegetables.

[@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa]

Sanjay Gupta I use regular soil for vegetables with Perlite and kelp water and had success.

[@lalalivya9306]

When do you need to water it? As soon as you plant it or after it grows

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Depends on your weather, here in tropical land, only after it grows (if at all).

[@futureenigma5780]

hare krishna. so fascinating.... cow dung soil.... gotta try this....

[@ngaadams84]

Hello I need your help what kind of soil best for growing Turmeric plants please could you write the name of soil to use for better growing turmeric thank you so much.

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

The best soil, is composed of 100% organic matter, that is cow dung soil (composted).

[@gratitude5740]

What soil did you say tumeric grows in? I didn't catch that !

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

That is cow dung soil, 100% organic matter.

[@letscarpethisdiem1988]

Is it a bad idea to bring my tumeric in during the winter? Will it still grow inside? Or is it just better to let it stay outside and go dormant?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

We live in tropical weather, so leaving outside is fine. Depends on your local climate, if they are very very low temperatures, it can kill the root.

[@erinajoan]

What part of the plant harvest do you put back into the soil?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Any part of the root will work, the finger, or the center part.

[@mohammedabdullahghori7259]

Good, keep it up

[@janixbarbosa-llanos4715]

How do you spell the name of the soil you recommend?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Cow dung, or cow manure soil. 100% from cows dung.,.

[@kolovrat4044]

ty for sharing. Hare Krishna.

[@Smahi.kofficial]

Hare Krishna. So once you harvest, is there a way to keep the plant so it can produce more turmeric later or would one need to start all over again?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hare Kṛṣṇa! :) Yes, the bigger sized root (mother root) can be replanted, turmeric is much easier to keep going year after year. Ginger is harder, it produces less root material.

[@Smahi.kofficial]

@@TheVedicWayChannel Hare Krishna, thank you.

[@kidman2006]

I was wondering what soil you use. I couldn't get to hear it from the video.

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hi, its cow dung soil. Its explained in detail on this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZrJiKGdmd-qeck

[@observer2441]

Are you recommending straight cow dung with nothing added for aeration?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Yes, except the cow dung must not be bright green (in other words has dried or composted)

[@observer2441]

@@TheVedicWayChannel Thanks much. Looking forward to it.

[@Mourad1m]

Hello Sir! How long time does it take untill i can harvest it? I can't hear clearly - what kind of soil are you suggesting? Plz. write it.

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hello Sir, it takes at least minimum 6 months with ideal conditions (tropical weather) to be able to harvest. But if you need continuously, then do it yearly cycles, its easy to manage. The soil must be 100% cow dung soil, that is, you get cow dung and compost it, or dry it in three days. We have a video on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZrJiKGdmd-qeck

[@Mourad1m]

Thank you so much for all your information!

[@etra174]

Can dry tumeric rhizome be used for planting? Will it grow?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

I'm not sure, they usually boil it so that it completely dies and be dried properly. Unless it is partially dried, there's hope, you'll see them sprouting even on the counter top. Hare Kṛṣṇa!

[@SleepingNinjaTHEoriginal]

Are those leaves edible?

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

I don't think so, can be used for wrapping items to steam.

[@emiali1191]

yeah that might be the reason but i just wanted to know is this grow able or its just west of time

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

If you use cow dung soil you will get guaranteed good results.

is it wild turmeric or simple turmeric??? plz reply.....

How can I propagate curcuma or turmeric from my own pot

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

You have to harvest, then you'll have plenty more seed material.

[@blitebeats]

you said you were going to post a video on how to make the powder

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Yes, I did. I'm not sure I even recommend it. We have found that it is way easier to just have a few plants and just harvest year round as needed. Why do you need to make it into powder? Hare Kṛṣṇa!

[@blitebeats]

@@TheVedicWayChannel How do you recommend taking it? I'm doing research on Turmeric and wanted to know the process of how it's made. Anything you can tell me about Turmeric would be very helpful. Thank you!

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

@@blitebeats Well this video shows you pretty much. Then after that, the powder is done by putting the dried roots into a cofee grinder (or industrial machine). Then it just spins like a blender until it comes out like powder. That's it. But it gets much less flavor very quickly once it is in powder form.

[@AbCd-xg2rr]

Hare Krishna, please post a video on how to powder turmeric, I have harvested a lot of them and sold most of the produce and buy turmeric powder.

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hare Kṛṣṇa. Ok, will post soon. Basically, you just need to boil it, then slice it or whole dry it, and then grind. Grinding can be done in a mill, or by using a mixie or cofee grinder to turn into powder.

[@AbCd-xg2rr]

Hare Krishna. Prabhu Ji. I follow the same method, pluck out the pieces, boil them and then slice them. After that, it's left to dry under the sun for a few days and then sold.Traditionally, we don't powder turmeric. It's turned into a round lump and used in curries. For medicine, we crush the dried, sliced turmeric and add them .

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Oh ok, so then you already are doing great. Powdering is not really necessary.

[@Mmaulin12]

The Vedic Way When using turmeric for pooja, it can be used in powdered form. I buy turmeric root from the market.

[@iluvindia01]

How long does it take to grow? I have tried but it does not seems to work please help!!

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

The weather has to be hot, that's when it sprouts. Over here, it happens in May. If its not sprouting, no need to worry, the root can remain alive until the conditions are favorable. Does the ground freeze where you are?

[@iluvindia01]

The Vedic Way 🙏🏼Hi!! Yes it freezes in winter ❄️ we have snow And frost, I live in London! 😬 can I do it indoors? Many thanks for replying!!

[@TheVedicWayChannel]

Hi, ohh snow and frost. So, yes, definitely take it indoors during those times, the sprouting time has probably passed already, we are too close to winter now. You can try putting one piece of root inside a plastic bag with a little wet paper to simulate underground and see what the root is doing. Hare Kṛṣṇa!
