I agree with Pitangadiego..get that baby in the ground (well drained soil) ASAP..you say you watered daily?? That is way too much...water in when you receive and every 2 to 3 days thereafter...depending on conditions...I have left corms in a pile and the pseudostem totally wilted away and pups start coming out the sides (without soil or water..other than trace amounts from rainfall).

Good luck!!
