How to plant/cultivate
Three strategies are currently available for the rapid multiplication of planting material. The first is to use a minisett technique analogous to the same technique used for yams. Essentially, small corm pieces 30-50g in weight are protected with seed dressing. They are sprouted in a nursery, and then planted in the field[3]
