Hi dear a quick tip for u and all. U need to allow the plant to die. Like dead plant. After that you no need to add water after soil is dry you can harvest it. Then u can see the skin of the turmeric will be hard and able to store for months. Good day

[@purplethumb7887]

Great information. Thank you.

[@echandoaperderseaprende9887]

That's exactly what I observe with my plants: they will eventually die after some months. When the leaves start turning yellow, it's time to harvest!! 😀

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

I had heard that too. Don't harvest until the leaves are dead.

[@meisievannancy]

Do they die if you stop watering them

[@alisha6920]

@@meisievannancy no dear, after the plant is dead we need to stop watering. If the plant is healthy and good we need to water it daily and fertilizer them for the good growth

[@neens1369]

The leaves can be put into soups and other dishes cooked with coconut milk. Very aromatic.

[@FairyChild_For_Freedom-Justice]

I was wondering about that when I was watching another video on how to grow thank you for this information. I've learned with ginger the leaves are a romantic as well and plan on making wax blocks with the leaves in it for the aroma for my wax warmer now I intend on putting these leaves in as well

[@roselavender2222]

I've got excess turmeric and have been making a cold infused drink for the past few months. In a large jug, I add grated turmeric, slice and squeeze a couple of lemons & oranges including rind and honey. Fill up with water and refrigerate for at least 8 hours. Helps the immune system and prevents from getting sick as well.

Golden Milk Recipe 1 cup almond milk 1 heaping tsp. Organic Turmeric ½ - 1 tsp. Ground cinnamon ⅛ tsp. Ground pepper 1 Tbsp. butter from grass fed cows 4 thin slices of fresh ginger 1 Tbsp. honey

[@christinemccoy4471]

@phat Or milk or coconut milk. I prefer coconut milk for this

[@barbcandus]

those side bulbs are energy stores for the plant, they do that when they are crowded

[@sappir26]

I saw a Chinese lady storing them in sand once they were completely dry. It looked like she knew what she was doing so I thought I'd share that. She had quite alot so it must store for a long period of time that way. She did however harvest it when the leaves had dried up. You forgot to mention the beautiful flowers that this plant puts out and that the turmeric will only be ready to harvest after they appear. You can harvest some at different stages as well and leave the rest in the ground to continue to grow until the leaves die back, unless of course you want to harvest the leaves as well.

[@Mrbfgray]

Good info, thanks. I'm always seeking to stuff I can harvest a little as needed.

[@susanmarie7938]

I just bought a piece of organic turmeric at Whole Foods to grow. So glad I found your video. You asked us to let you know what we use turmeric for. I make a turmeric tea. I have a tea pot with a basket. I don’t use exact measurements because I don’t think you can mess this tea up. I squirt honey to cover the bottom of my tea pot. Then I squirt in some lemon juice. I use the bottled kind. In the basket I slice up one to two turmeric roots (unpeeled). I slice up a ginger root (unpeeled) and break up a stick of cinnamon. I pour boiling water over basket and let it steep 15-30 minutes. It’s fabulous hot and cold. This is a tea I always have on hand. That’s why I’m so excited to grow our own turmeric!!

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

My wife loves tea ☕️. I will have to pass that recipe along to her. Happy growing!

[@tinaharvey356]

Maby I should go there are they in the cold bin or out in the open in veggie area

@susan Real lemon. Bottled is not necessarily real

[@Lisa-zt9jr]

Tumeric is delicious when added to hot milk, which makes a tasty and healthy drink. Cut a small piece and place in a saucepan with the milk bring just up to the boil and cool - delicious. I also use powdered Tumeric in lentil dhal recipes and onto potatoes oven baked with quality oil and a little salt.

[@jodirook71]

Use with caution it's a blood thinner - I had a patient that wanted to take tumeric supplements , but at the time they had been removed from all of their blood thinners before surgery and tumeric had to be removed as well. So if you are predisposed to bleeding - tumeric is not for you

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Yes that is correct. That’s what I made sure to mention in the how to grow turmeric video before this one so that people would be aware 👍👌

[@maxkendall1298]

And my blood cancer specialist said having turmeric would make no difference. Keep taking those blood thinking tabs

[@nicolelaplant5465]

You can wrap the root in foil and roast in hot coals of a campfire and eat like a tiny baked sweet potato.

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

Oh that sounds like something that I will have to try!

[@leannebetts5009]

Hi! I actually found your video so that I could grow my own turmeric for the leaves in dishes that call to wrap fish or chicken in them and steam cook. Can't wait to try it! I cried a little bit watching you throw them out. ;) Other dishes calling for the leaves include haldi and patholi. I may not be using those terms correctly, but growing these at home will allow me to learn to cook them and provide some fresh, quality turmeric for my health. I just scored some organic roots at the farmer's market today, so I'm eager to get them in the dirt!

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Oh trust me it always kills me too! I’m like “I know these have to be good for something! They are to big/pretty and awesome!” I definitely want to try this now! Such a good idea!

[@echandoaperderseaprende9887]

Hello! I did not know what to do with the leaves either. Can they really be eaten or just be used for food wraping (like the banana leaves)? I have plenty of those!

[@abbyiyer2011]

Cut these fresh turmeric, ginger, green chillies if you like into small pieces. Add salt, lots of lemon juice. Leave for 10 minutes fresh pickle is ready. You can just snack on them or add to buttermilk and drink and you will love the tiny pieces that you munch on. Very good during hit summer as a drink. Recipe3. Mix coconut, brown sugar, cardomom and keep aside. Make a thick rice paste by adding water. To this add white sauce made with flour( just like the one made for pasta). Mix them to a thick spreading consistency.add very little salt and 1tsp melted butter or coconut oil to the batter. Spread this batter in leaf.add the coconut mixture to one half. Fold and steam for 10 minutes. Your whole home will smell turmeric.

Sounds very similar to fire cider. And my husband and I make it up but we don't strain it. Takes a little bit to get down with all the pulp but it's not a killer when you only have to take two tablespoons every night. I usually have to chase it down with tea.. my husband is very tough and he will just chew garlic ginger and turmeric and lemon peel all together and swallow it with tea 😆

Turmeric should go in every chicken dish . The amount is up to you. It has best flavor cooked well as boiled with whole chicken and your other seasonings, then use your chicken to make dinner and you have a really great broth for soups or gravy Toast it with your sauteed onions to start your meals. Try a small amt. at first if your not sure , but I use it by the tablespoons for my chicken soup and bone broth Try with pork and look to India and other nation who use it most often for other ideas. Turmeric is so very good for you with medicinal properties. Dry it to put in gel capsules. Black pepper helps your body use the turmeric and should be used together. Just make a drink of it. Cooked is best add some milk. Clean the skin with a spoon Greating it with a hand greater or food processor when fresh is easiest to dry and then grind with a spice/coffee grinder Or throw cuts or slices in broth to cook then remove (could leave skin on) Or not harvest at all, just cut as you need it Carla

Tumeric is unbeatable pain killer in raw form.

[@rossfairhurst2495]

Greetings, re the parts of Turmeric you refer to (not incorrectly) as tubers. They are in fact Nodulose Roots. Their function is store nutrients/energy during the good times and make it available to the plant in the lean times. The sole function is nutrient/energy storage and they should not contain the correct cells/tissue for growing new plants. If you do experiment with them I would love to see the outcome. REALLY enjoying the way you share your growing experiences - keep it up!

BTW, insane Turmeric harvest off of just one plant! 💚👍

I also make Warm golden milk in the winter. I also add fresh squeezed orange juice in the summer to the simple syrup, it makes a wonderful cold drink over ice. I also make a non-sweet simple syrup (ginger /turmeric/lemon) & add it to chicken, pork or fish recipes. It gives every such good flavor. And definitely make everything taste so good.

This is a fantastic video. I have successfully been growing ginger for a couple of years now. Last year I tried growing turmeric. While my ginger eventually sprouted indoors, my turmeric did nothing. Eventually, it was time to move everything outside. Initially I tossed the turmeric rhizomes in the trash but then pulled them back out and planted them in a neglected pot outside on my porch where I promptly forgot about them. Two months later, I had turmeric growing. When fall arrived, I hauled the pot indoors. The plants currently look like the plants you just harvested. I am seriously debating just leaving it in the pot and moving it back outside in May. This year I purchased 5 pounds of turmeric and ginger and planted them indoors a month ago. The ginger's nodes are starting to bulge but the turmeric is once again still dormant. House temp is 68-71 degrees. What temperature are you starting your rhizomes at? Should I get heat mats? I live in the mountains of NC. Last frost date April 15.

[@majesticlunatic4985]

Don't know if this is still relevant, but sometimes in can take a really long time (up to three months) for the turmeric to sprout.

[@evietahapary9923]

Hai I do have one tip for using the leaves. In Indonesia and some countries in Asia we use the leaves for a special beefstew called Rendang. In 2011 it was crowned the Best Food in CNN's 50 Best Food. The leaves we use to make the meat tender and add this specific flavour to the dish Im an Indonesian woman born and raised in the Netherlands. Here in the Netherlands it is difficult lets say almost nog available if we want to buy these leaves in a Asian supermarket we call Toko. So yes look for an Indonesian recipe for Rendang and you'll see how they use the leaves. I try so hard to grow turmeric and finally I have one leave coming up this week. Id give it some TLC

Thank you for sharing your knowledge on growing and harvesting Tumeric. I like to shred fresh Turmeric and add it to sandwiches and wraps. I also like to make a refreshing drink (served hot or cold) where I thinly slice a two-inch nub, add it to a cup of water, boil and simmer for 5mins. I then pour everything into a jug over a sprig of fresh mint, add a little honey and let it cool before straining it. You can enjoy this drink warm on a winter's evening or fridge cold on hot summer days.

My husband and I drink fire cider every night for our health and it has a lot of turmeric in it. It has been hard for me to find and when I do it's like $12 a pound! So I plan on trying to grow it myself next year along with ginger and hopefully some garlic. I don't know much about gardening but I am trying to learn. Of the other channels made a really good suggestion of first drawing the turmeric for several days outside and then storing it in a bucket of sand to preserve it for a long time. And then just get what you need out of the bucket of sand. It makes sense to me because then moisture wouldn't be able to get to it and rot it so quickly as opposed to storing it in the refrigerator. Anyway, I thought that was a neat suggestion.

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

@@anneg8319 well I just use the info that I found on the internet. I mix it up too depending on what I have access to. Sometimes it's hard to find fresh turmeric, so we substitute the powdered kind. But basically I use garlic, jalapenos, lemons and sometimes other citrus fruits like limes, oranges and grapefruit, fresh turmeric, fresh ginger, fresh or non creamy horseradish, onions, honey and apple cider vinegar with the mother. I've been hearing a lot about the benefits of cranberries lately too so I will probably put that in my next batch.

Apparently, you can eat the leaves

How do you store it for winter?

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

In a dry dark location.

@@TheMoreYouGrow . Thanks. I only have one plant. This is the second year I’ve tried to grow it. I buy organic and plant and it never roots. I hear they spray something on tumeric and ginger to stop rooting….even organic. I got the ginger to grow (well. There’re leaves but I don’t know yet what’s in the soil. Anyway, I guess if I have tumeric this year, I’ll save it and plant next year. At least it won’t have growth inhibitor on it. Lol.

How long did you have them growing for?

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Around 4-6 months, but I just kind of watch to see them the pot it’s getting full from the rhizomes

[@trulycrystalknight]

9 months

Which state do you live?

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Texas

[@beckycucchi3366]

Those things you are calling tubers are energy stores for the plant in case they need it. It will not grow a plant and does not taste like turmeric.

[@TheMoreYouGrow]

Haha yeah I figured it out later 😅😂

[@sappir26]

I saw that you can wrap them up in foil and bake them in the oven or over hot coals like potatoes. Have you ever tried this?
