Default Pstem broke

Not a happy bunny, the 6ft Pstem on my overwintered basjoo
decided to keel over after i moved it outside from the house to an unheated greenhouse. I had to cut it off a couple of inches above the corm. This made me a bit twitchy so i brought it back into the house again. My other pups which have been in the unheated greenhouse over winter are all fine.

I am now thinking of putting the cut corm under a growlight to help revive it any thoughts on that ? Note the corm is solid and doesnt seem to show any signs of rot.

Anyone in the UK been brave enough to put any nanas outside yet ?
