Re: Amorphophallus konjac, multiple buds


Mitch,

they are tubers...

There is a dominant bud that normally keeps the others  from growing!  I
don't think you would have multiple shoots (leafs) on one tuber!!  you
should have just the one big tuber!1  But who knows it will take its own
course!

Hope this would help and have fun growing
