Although I love growing stuff in my backyard garden, I do also enjoy container gardening. We have already looked at how to grow turmeric and even how to make turmeric powder in earlier posts. I thought today we could take a quick look at how to grow turmeric in pots or containers.
I am always open to new container gardening tips, you should be too. For example, over the years I have learnt that you should always use high quality potting soil and that is exactly what I have been doing. With the turmeric, you start with the smaller pots and then transfer to the bigger ones when the seedling has become established. Just imagine having your own turmeric growing on your own patio?

Here’s What You’ll Need:
- turmeric rhizomes
- paper plate
- potting soil
- 6″ pots or containers
- 12″ pots
- compost or manure
The real trick to getting your turmeric going is the selection of the rhizomes that you plant. If you get that right then everything else becomes easy. Also the selected rhizomes will need to be left out to shoot before planting in your smaller pots. When the plant has grown leaves and is ready for the sun outside, you are going to need to harden it first. You can expect to harvest in about 8 months, replant for a continuous supply.
