So I made a spur of the moment decision to buy a rhizome at my LHBS this past weekend. I've been thinking about growing for a while now, but I hadn't researched it at all.
After seeing some of the rhizomes on here (especially the ones beerloaf currently has for sale), mine looks kinda pathetic.
I know not to expect a lot out of a first year plant, but I want to give it the best shot I can, especially since I only have room for one plant.
Assuming I do all the right things with the soil and watering, will this thing actually turn into something this year? Is what I have average as far as size goes? That's a sandwich size ziplock bag, so the rhizome is probably just under 5" long.
I guess I'm most worried that there's only one tiny white sprout on mine, while others I see have numerous sprouts that look to be a few inches long already.
