Water consistently to keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season, but avoid waterlogged conditions. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune to remove any dead, damaged, or diseased stems as needed. Light pruning can also be done to maintain shape or control size.

Avoid heavy pruning, especially during the active growing season, to prevent stressing the plant.

Dioscorea soso can be propagated from bulbils (aerial tubers) that form on the vines, or by division of the rootstock during dormancy. Plant bulbils in well-draining soil, and divide rhizomes carefully, ensuring each piece has at least one bud.

Repot established plants every 2-3 years, or when they become root-bound. Choose a pot with excellent drainage, at least 5 cm larger than the current one.

Use a well-draining potting mix, and handle the root system gently during repotting.
