Veinte Cohol
is an interesting plant and much can be learnt by experimenting with this cultivar.
It's a very sensitive plant, so many outside influences will be magnified.
- corm size -
Size does matter.
Starting with a large or very large corm is a common rookie mistake,
unless your goal is to use it to grow the ratoon or for propagation. .
I've observed at a certain size and larger that the plant produces smaller bunches*.
I've also observed at a certain size the plant/main pseudostem would die.
- sunlight -
Full sunlight recommended
Partial sunlight - small bunches*.
Note for Myth Believers - the mat/pups are not a multidirectional conduit of nutrients,
i.e., leaves of the ratoon that block sunlight will negatively affect the mother plant.
- suckers
- plant size height
I've observed 8' & 9' plants that produced small bunches*.
- plant size girth
- mat size
- ratoon crop
- indoor Winter care
Please share your successes that won't or will work.
-Any Cultivar-
* small bunches - not worth harvesting
