I read that sometimes the rhizomes found in the grocery store have been treated with growth retardent.
Did any of you find that a problem?
The one I saw for sale (I didn't keep the link) was $ 12.99 for one rhizome (to buy thru the mail).
I thot I would try the ones I buy from Whole Foods as an experiment, I'm also going to ask the store if they can tell me if they have been treated with growth retardent. Probably they'll have to ask their distributor.
I also read an article that says the Turmeric plant is being heavily cultivated and 94% of it found undomesticated is gone.
Which is another good reason to grow it ourselves.
Plus I didn't know it had a beautiful bloom.
