A couple of years ago I bought a small piece of turmeric in a grocery
store. I put it in a pot indoors. Leaves sprouted and grew about 18".
Then the tips turned brown. The whole leaves started to wither.

A new set of leaves started growing in the second year. Now they are
healthy.

How do I harvest turmeric. Can I dig out some of it and cut the root
without killing the whole plant?

Also are the leaves edible?
