I regard Rob McClure as the expert on this with what he achieved last year
in the first stage of acclimatising imported tubers to Australian time.  I
currently have some 600 tubers in the refrigerator in slightly moist perlite
& vermiculite mixture.  There appears to be no rotting or shrivelling.  Each
tuber is sitting , fully covered by the mixture, in its own mini pot.  Will
know how well they have done in three weeks when they come out to be
planted.

More comments Rob, please.
