Cinnamon is supposed to kill fungi. Unfortunately, it is also supposed prevent roots from forming.

Would it be good or bad to dust bulbs you are storing in cinnamon?

RE: Cornstarch instead of bulb dust?

I've never heard of corn starch in bulb/tuber storage, but have heard of using cinnamon as a natural antifungal. I used cinnamon one year as an experiment on raw tuber cuts instead of sulfur and it worked fine.
