LJ Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Andu Can you explain your growing conditions?? If you keep them too warm under your grow lights then they will go dormant - ie the leaves will die off. If they had gone dormant and were kept standing in water then the tubers will rot. Its also not advisable to dig the tubers up unless the plant is dormant and then you need to keep it pretty dry. Heather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJ Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 If its very warm then it will go dormant - they grow in cooler, wetter winter season and go dormant summer....think about the conditions they experience in their natural habitat.

Guest root Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I have seen some forms growing during summer, last week to be exact. Some of them take advantage of favourable times. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
