[Aroid-l] Pycnospatha arietina - a problem

From: "Marek Argent" <abri1973 at wp.pl> on 2008.12.22 at 02:32:51 Hi all,   Last year I bought one tuber, it produced a leaf and fell into dormancy as it should (I cultivated it at home).   This year it hasn't put any leaf or roots. Yesterday I dug it from the pot and I still don't know if it is alive or not. I scratched it a little - it was cream beige inside and seemed solid.  I broke the tip where the leaf should grow from and it was wet. How to check if it is not rotten? What to do with the tuber? I stored it during dormancy also in the room temperature. Here are 2 photos, I can do better images if neccesary (macro closeups).   Please help me Marek Argent ------=_NextPart_001_004A_01C963E5.F8282190--------=_NextPart_000_0049_01C963E5.F8282190
