I had a Raja Puri try to choke on me this season. I made a 4" vertical cut instead of a horizontal cut. I peeled layer by layer like an onion until I got to the growing area. This wasn't enough so I did another 4" cut and peeled the layers. The second cut released the leaves allowing normal growth. By making a vertical cut you are preserving as much of the growing pstem as possible.

Good luck!
