Saw this yesterday on Facebook, posted by Mary’s Heirloom Seeds. Thought it might help some frustrated gardeners...
“I mentioned earlier this year that I was researching using Turmeric Powder for pest control. I finally started my experiment with my pumpkin patches.
Here’s what I found that might be helpful for you as well: “Another benefit of turmeric powder is that it helps repel soil pests. The strong odour and taste of turmeric powder deter soil pests. Moreover, turmeric powder is also rich in antibacterial properties that protect plants from both soil pests and fungal diseases.”
“By itself or combined with other natural ingredients, studies show turmeric is a natural insect repellent, fungicide, and bactericide. Essential turmeric oils (from turmeric leaves and rhizome), turmeric extracts, and powdered turmeric contain compounds that are effective insecticides. They work against a variety of bugs that commonly bite humans, infest stored foods such as rice and flour, and attack garden plants and farm crops”
Turmeric Spray: The famous golden superfood packed with antioxidants and antiseptics properties is not just good for you but also your garden. You can simply sprinkle the turmeric powder on your plants to avoid infestation or you can dilute 1-part turmeric powder to 10 parts of water for spraying on your plants
Curcuma longa has well-known insecticidal and repellent effects on insect pests

Rather use it in the kitchen and not in the garden unless growing.

Using natural remedies in gardening can be as precise and effective as construction estimation in building projects. One such powerful and versatile natural solution is turmeric. Known for its culinary and medicinal uses, turmeric also serves as an excellent agent for disease and pest control in gardens.

Would growing turmeric in the garden provide the same benefits? If so, would it be more or less effective than the powder?
