| Will I be able to regrow the stem by putting some hormone powder on the end and planting it back in the soil? I only had three measly stems as it was! Hate to lose one.
I'm still growing mine indoors until it cools off a little here. The temperature stays in the 90's, sometimes closer to 100, and terribly humid. I'm afraid if I plant them outside they'll just shrivel up and die! Thanks,

| Why not try to root it? You probably would have better results if you give the cutting some protection from the hot sun for a while ( in a pot), and then you could transplant it when the roots have formed. Many of us do stem cuttings in the spring. You should also get more tubers in the fall. |

| Awesome! I'll keep my fingers crossed that it grows roots. I cut off the top of the stem that was wilted. Hopefully this will give it a better chance. Thanks, |
