Default Re: Are my Basjoos dead?

From the look of the pics on the outside they look gone, but everyone is right, underneath all that nasty dead material should be a firm bright looking corm when you start inspecting cutting into it. It is definitely true though, it will take weeks if not a month or two of steady summer warm weather to get really dormant or dead looking ones going again. Ive had trouble with my basjoos replanting last years corms into the ground in mid April and i still haven't seen any sign of new growth. They sure are stubborn things, i guess that's the trade off when growing them up north..
