D. hookeriana Stem

*Sorry, I meant D. hookeri.

So I generously received some D. hookeri tubers from kula a while back. I have been lucky enough to get a lot of them to sprout. However, I had this pot in my cool basement, and was waiting for them to pop up. It looks like I missed the mark though, because the stems have kept growing out of the soil, fooled by the dark basement! They were kept very lightly moist in a bag, in dark, cool conditions. Currently, I have them unbagged and sitting on my windowsill. They get 8 hours of light, and temps from 69F-60F. The humidity stays around 50%, and they are now being kept in a little tray of water.

So what do I do to get them growing normally? All the others I had were in lighted conditions, so they are fine.
