Hi from Brissie, I know I'm totally out of sync but am planting some kipflers now in early April as I can't wait until the nominated season. I've kept them in a bag in the pantry and they now have lots of eyes. Can you cut the tubers in half before planting to increase the crop? I've made timber planting boxes which can stack as the plants grow and am using a soil and compost mix. Will anything help considering planting at this time of year?
