Turmeric was dug out today We did not get much but should be enough for home consumption - no gifting to others. It will be first thoroughly washed, boiled and cut into very thin slices. It is then dried in the sun and put in a mixie that will give us turmeric powder. I have kept a few rhizons for planting. Hope to get a good crop next year

That's interesting to hear how you harvest and process it.

To me that looks like quite a harvest - I hardly even see that much turmeric in the stores.
