Les,
I grow konjac in direct sun here in Ohio. Already emerged leaves will =
burn if moved into direct sun without care. I now avoid that problem by =
letting the leaf emerge in direct sun. Have grown konjac this way for =
several years.

Subject: konjac and sunlight
A discussion a short while ago pointed out some controversy about =
konjac.
If I understood correctly, someone said that konjacs in Japan are grown =
in
direct sunlight. Is anyone here growing one under direct sunlight?
I ask because my konjac (the black stem variety) was doing perfectly =
fine
this spring but the leaf then degenerated. I thought that the tuber was
gone but it appears to be sending up a new shoot. I'd like to get as =
much
growth in the tuber as possible this season and if it would tolerate
sunlight, I assume it would be able to grow even larger. Unfortunately,
there are only 8 growing weeks left here on Long Island and there just
won't be much space to prolong the season indoors.
So, any advice on light tolerance?
Les
