Yes, Shawn. You can replant the bottom portion. They have healthy and intact roots. You can also replant the new nubs. Your results are great for your climate and length of time in the ground. Even though the harvest quantity isn’t a lot they are nice and plump. I can’t wait to see future updates. 🌸🌿🦋
I live in Homer, Alaska and have grown turmeric and ginger as houseplants. I’ve replanted the new growth and had success with both plants. Lemongrass is also fun to grow as a houseplant (you could probably use your cattle panel greenhouse). Thank you for sharing your incredible wealth of knowledge - I can’t tell you how helpful you’ve been! You inspire me to try all kinds of things in my cold a** climate!
What do you do to grow lemongrass as a houseplant? They have always struggled for me, they seem to hate the central heating, they just die off halfway through the winter, they seem to dry up or rot, not sure.
I am in western NY, I love that you experiment with growing different things. I just got a little Green House this year and experimenting with what can work
i just plant ginger from trader joes and it does fine. you don't need expensive seed ginger from hawaii unless you rely on it to make a living. this past year, i didn't even pre-sprout inside. i just threw it in the ground late spring. it did just fine. not huge and i'm not selling so it was fine. i've done turmeric from that fancy whole paycheck store in the past. it also did well.
@@az55544 It's all relative. Staying below freezing even during the day for a week and the low getting down to 10 or below is significantly cold when you are talking plants. During this period, we also got minus 5. In no way does the above constitute "a mild winter" as far as plant hardiness is concerned. But yes, for Northern folks it probably isn't super cold. LOL
I so admire your modest , unassuming, curious and investigative nature. And all the detail without all the noise..... just real stuff. Thanks so much for all the effort you put into these videos. I'm in western PA, zone 6 a or b (I can never remember which) and have grown both ginger and turmeric for a few years. I start and leave my plants in early February in the laundry room under lights until I can plant outdoors in the garden. I've had good luck with both, though I have yet to see blooms on either. Nonetheless I've been quite satisfied with the yields. I freeze it all, it's so much easier to grate right out of the freezer. I grew some blue turmeric this year, it also came from an organic Hawaiian farm. I never considered trying to over winter the 'mother nubule' or the root ball so I'll be quite interested in the outcome of that experiment. Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
I live in the tropics. Don't know about replanting the plant directly as when I harvest them they are all dry. Guess it'll be ok in your condition. Harvest seemed fine. Plenty enough for your own consumption. Just did my very first batch last month. Real decent flavor!
My tumeric and ginger are growing on the kitchen table right next to the south facing window. I planted them, I think, in spring last year. During the summers they lived outside, and I brough them when it turned cold. I guess I will investigate how the tubers look, when the leaves die back.
I do not. I put it on a heat mat for a while insulated with blankets until it sprouts. Ideally the conditions are right to transplant out at that point...
i wonder if digging them up and letting the tops be sucked dry by the rhizomes, just like you do for gladioli and dahlias before cleanup, would make any difference. then just to separate the rootstocks from rhizomes
Very interesting. We have a few acres of muck north of you I wonder how it would fare in our moist soils. Be easy digging. Deer , muscrat , woodchuck , and turtles when they crisscross the field four times for the “ perfect spot “ to lay eggs wreaks havoc on most anything planted down there I wonder if they would steer clear of it being foreign to them. My father has food allergy to turmeric , ginger , and mustard.
@kahae9858 Thank you. I was working while listening and didn't see that. I thought he said he was going to add the link to notes, but I'll go back and listen/watch later today.
I've been trying to take turmeric for my arthritis and back pain. I'm not impressed enough to continue. For a while I was believing I was sleeping better. Maybe I need to try taking more. Does anyone have better luck w/ it? I spent years trying anything but pharmaceuticals...but had to resort to pain meds when I couldn't function and started thinking I couldn't stand the pain of one more day.
Turmeric should work but must be combined with black pepper to make the turmeric more potent. Have you tried comfrey salve for your arthritis and pain? If you had access to fresh comfrey you could even apply a comfrey poultice to the affected area. My friends find pain relief with the use of turmeric and comfrey.
@@susanfaust9336 I do take turmeric w/ black pepper. I haven't tried comfrey. I planted tons of Bocking 14 years ago under my fruit trees but never got around to utilizing it for anything else. I'll try that. Thanks:)
My wife Sasha makes a 'golden milk' that has turmeric steeped in a fatty milk with black peppercorn and some other things. The pepper along with a fatty fluid seem to be key in helping make it work better...

Great questions and experiments.

I am in TN, zone 7, and we've had some super cold winters the last few years, and my turmeric has survived in the ground unprotected!
TN and zone 7 aren't super cold!

Yes all the way around, mother plants will sprout and the roots will regrow if you cut them low. Great harvest!
That’s fantastic! 👍
This is exciting! I’m in Nova Scotia and would love to run this experiment, good to know ahead of time that they are thirsty.
I tried growing ginger for the first time this year in OH. Tripled what I put in a pot. I'm excited to keep working on this crop!
Love the sound they made when you popped them off. I just heard that same thing a week ago when I harvested some Jerusalem artichoke.
Awesome medicine! I want to grow both ginger and tumeric thanks to you!
This is great. Gonna give it a try here in Ireland. Wish me luck !
Yes! Good luck !👍☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
I just love seeing what you're up to next! I have learned so much from watching you.
I'm very impressed 😊
Thank you.
I hope you show us how you process it and it's uses.... please? Great info, thank you for that!!!
Great harvest!

Guess it'll be ok in your condition.

❤❤❤nice harvest
That would be awesome if they could re sprout, definitely worth a try, look forward to seeing how they turn out!
We'll share when we know
amazing medicine
Nice! Thanks for making the video. Will try this in Ireland, zone 9a ish
I'm in KC Kansas and I'm trying to sprout the same mother on heat mats and break off the sprouts to then pot up separately
Great crop , you did well😊 it may over winter....very curious to find out
Consider sprouting some of the new growth for comparison
hi Sean! Do you use a grow light in your root cellar for the rooted turmeric?
I do not. I put it on a heat mat for a while insulated with blankets until it sprouts. Ideally the conditions are right to transplant out at that point...
Thank you for video. Cool what specific kind did you grow? Also can tell us where you purchased the black bins for storage containers.
I don't remember the name but some type of red turmeric. The bins are 'bulb crates' purchased used from a friend who got them from a flower farm
Beautiful medicine Brah! Been considering trying...and seed from the same source.

I'm not finding the link to the tumeric source???
It appeared on the screen when Sean was talking about it.

You would have got 3 to 5 times more i bet, if u left it in for next winter. Looks beutiful though🎉
2:14 I saw a bug! 😅
