I started them off in pots for all except one. I now have three of them in the soil and the rest in pots still. Mine took about one month or so to put up shoots as well, but I figure that was due to the season.<br />The worst thing about a yacon is waiting until early winter to harvest the tubers!Spotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08070064356059873617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768904846384260705.post-52041611313723459622009-08-31T22:20:54.734+10:002009-08-31T22:20:54.734+10:00Jason - I am growing yacon - not sure if you have ...Jason - I am growing yacon - not sure if you have grown it before, but FYI, it took about 4 weeks for the first shoots to appear on mine.<br />JamesJameshttp://www.randomplantings.comnoreply@blogger.com
