Turmeric (rhizome) Grow Your own,Grow Indoors or Outdoors - (1 Pound)

We were having such fun growing ginger rhizomes we figured "why not turmeric?" We ordered these even though a lot of the reviews seem to complain about the quality, but they arrived in a sealed bag, there were a TON of them, and even though most of the "eyes" were off, I placed half of the bag in this long pot w/ some basic "container soil"… and then just put it outside. I tend to have good luck with plants and seeds when I "set and forget", lol, instead of being overly precious and doting. It took a while, probably 4 weeks, but through a pretty hot late-spring and early-summer, lo and behold, it started sprouting. I would say 90% success! We got a lot of rain this year, so the soil was more wet than not…but I did let it dry out a couple times, naturally. Anyways, we are excited to harvest these in a few months! And the plant itself is very pleasing & tropical. Contrasts nicely with other bushes in the yard, and our other porch potted plants. I'll probably end up planting some in the yard, and keep some in pots!

I bought it in February (I live in the deep south) and planted it in a large pot, protected it from any cold and it has never sprouted. Not one sprout. It's almost like it was from a grocery store and sprayed so it doesn't sprout. I could have bought some in the grocery store and got the same results. This was a total waste of money and effort.

The product arrived looking very fresh....and a number of smaller pieces rather than large ones. I tried growing turmeric before and nothing happened so want to give it another try. Also, I make fire cider and needed some fresh for that as well....and this is perfect for a batch of that and plenty left to plant. So fingers crossed I get it right this time....but these looks to be nice and healthy and should grow.

I planted these roots last spring and they sprouted quickly.

I planted this product the same time, in the same conditions as I planted ginger, also from Amazon. One example of the ginger is growing at 3” tall, none of the examples of this product have shown any signs of life. I feel the product was defective.

The turmeric looked beautiful, absolutely beautiful but for some reason it never took sprout. Very saddened over this.I've grown turmeric before and had great success. I don't know what wrong With this batch, I did everything I normally do but I just did not sprout. I even dug up a few to look and see if there was a node starting and nothing and it's been enough time for it to sprout. I don't know if seller will replace, I have not asked him. I just can't for the life of me figure what went wrong.

THE TUMERIC IS FRESH, GREAT TO USE FOR YOUR REMEDIES. BUT IT HAD NO ROOTS. I BOUGHT IT FOR PLANTING. THE PICTURE SHOWS MANY ROOTED TUBERS. I HAVE DECIDED TO USE FOR REMEDY. THE SIZE IS EXELLENT. I WILL NOT RETURN BECAUSE I BELIEVE IT WILL NOT ARRIVE IN THE SAME EXCELLENT VERY FRESH CONDITION.

Most of them did not survive or produce eyes
