basement season so far

the yacon in the basement is doing pretty much what it did outside...as the bottom, well shaded, leaves die back robust new growth appears at the top on all the plants...so my assumption is things are copacetic...one of the spuds i planted a while back down there had turned itself upright and is greening...leaves will be along soon enough...the other is taking it's sweet time and, based on another presumption, working on roots rather than leaves...roots first seems to be a general rule..a small season but one that will be expanding some before the winter ends.
