 My current approach is to find a match with any known medieval language to the term used in the manuscript.
 The logic is to find the equivalent letter(s) to each of the Voynich symbols used to identify the object.

It's true that we all hope the images will help us understand the text. 
However, in this particular case, all we can say with any certainty is that the plant has an underground part and the label has two syllables.
In Greek alone, I found several words: δαῦκος, γιγγίς, ῥάφη.
And if you add other languages, it would be even more complicated.
In short, this label is too short to serve as a basis for translation.
