There are many growers ''out there'' who have spent a considerable sum on purchasing this and other species of Amorphophallus and who are growing these somewhat difficult plants under lights, so any tips from you would be very valuable. Again, congrats, and good growing!! Julius Boos +More WPB, FLORIDA >>>I guess, If I suggest one important tip that would be> keep an electrical heater blowing onto pot of the tuber ( put also water pots for humidity) Or keep the pot around 85 F constantly. Dont let the temperature of the of the pot fluctuates. my first tuber bloomed was 51 lb . > take care > Zeren > > -----Original Message----- > From: Thom Powell > To: Discussion of aroids > Sent: Sat, 19 Apr 2008 9:50 am > Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] My Second Titanum is Blooming within 2 months at The Basement of my Restaurant Cafe Ma > > > YES!!!
