What’s the best way to know if you have Corm rot or not. the original plant is the only corm that is not really producing the spring. I posted a picture in my gallery I don’t know how to link it to the post- any advice - when I cut around the brown it appears to show some life - it’s well hydrated also

I have no idea which image you are referring to. Please give a link.


But what makes you think the corn is rotting vs the pstem Is dead?

Cut a few inches off of the top and see what it looks like in the middle. If it looks black cut back some more till you get to a greener center.

Stick your finger in it........You know the drill.:woohoonaner:
If it smells bad then your corm might be experiencing some rotting issues.

Or you may take the whole corm out and inspect it,
