Turmeric!! I planted some a turmeric root this year, and after waiting a very, very long time (months), it sprouted. I babied it for another couple of months, then, after it had a few leaves, transplanted it into the garden, giving it a whole garden bed to spread out in. Within forty-eight hours, the gophers had eaten it. So, this time, I planted THREE tubers. And one finally sprouted!! I will let it (and hopefully, its brethren) winter in the house, and then I will probably put it in an Earthbox to keep it safe. I am hoping to be able to harvest some tubers by this time next year!
