| I tried one variety last year in several different growing conditions (shady and moist, hot sunny and moist, hot sunny and dry). None produced a successful crop. But I really want this to work so ordered 5-6 varieties to try again this season. They arrived, I put the tubers in the fridge, and the fridge managed to freeze the tubers. Anyone else grow these? |

| Oca is an uncommon crop, since it grows well in a relatively narrow climate range... such as the maritime West Coast of the U.S.. If tubers froze, chances are that they will not survive. One of the biggest growers I know is at the site below, he grows about 60 varieties, along with other Andean root crops. His site gives a great deal of information on sources & culture. |
