3. Turmeric
Turmeric is a less common but incredibly rewarding plant to regrow. Use a fresh rhizome with visible knobs or buds. Plant it in well-drained soil, just under the surface, with the buds pointing upward. It thrives in warm, humid conditions and prefers filtered light. Within a few weeks, broad green leaves will appear. Turmeric takes time to grow, but the fresh roots are far more flavorful than store-bought powder.
