[net.garden] sick corn plant-help!

knowles@ada-uts.UUCP (12/19/85)

   I have a corn plant, three stalks cut off with greenery shooting
out from near the top of each one.  All the growth is dying off on
the shortest stalk.

Questions:

   Anyone know what's happening?
   How do I treat this?  Cut stalk below old growth; with knife or saw?
Medicine, light?
   Are the other two stalks in danger?

   Any help appreciated. Thanks.
