Hello - this is my first year of growin Yacon which I planted in October, although the 2 plants are quite tall they have not yet flowered. Does this mean that the aren't producng tubers yet , or will the flowers come later ? Look forward to hearing back. Regards Carol

Gently feel around in the soil to see if you have any tubes.
