The two plants were right bang next to each other, so there's no difference there. I'm not sure; it could just be an individual plant which didn't do well.

Today I finally dug up my oca.
As we had severe frost this winter (-15, which is rather rare in the Netherlands) and for quite some time, I thought my oca would be mush.

There were a few tubers damaged by frost, but I dug out about two kilos that were okay.
Saddad send me a handful last spring, about 10 tubers, so they produced well.
Thanks saddad  :-*.

I thought I had flung all the frosted tubers when I harvested, but today when I got out the box to select seed for next season, I noticed quite a few more had gone smelly and/or furry.

Best to keep checking!
