I was thinking about methods to improve success with later season divisions for over wintering, and I am wondering about methods for reducing fungal rot risk in the corm.

I was considering the following - fungicidal retail options seem quite limited here in Canada:

I was thinking of applying this to the cut portion of the corm prior to potting up primarily for the fungicidal properties, but I suppose the root stimulant might be a bonus..

I have also heard cinnamon works well.

Anyone tried either, and if so, did you have any particular issues?
