Default Re: Corm refusing to grow

So I am looking for a little direction as this is a new experience for me. I am considering doing the soak for my matooke corm but am a bit hesitant as I really don't want to bugger it because I don't have a backup.

The growing points I noticed when I pulled it haven't shown up above the surface yet, but at least one of them had progressed beyond the horizontal and was growing vertically (don't know why I didn't take a pic of it at the time, I should have).

I did not notice any obvious new roots but then I am ignorant enough not to be sure one or more of the growing points might be headed down?

It's been maybe two weeks, possibly a little more and I am wondering if it would be prudent to give it more time or if a soak might be a better idea to prod it along?

Any thoughts? What would you do?
