Hi,
First posting so please be patient :¬)
I planted 17 bowls of hyacinths for Xmas presents, did all the
usual,moist bulb fibre , in the dark, covered with paper ( in case we
open garage door). The bulbs are now resembling those martians from War
of the Worlds---all stood up out of the bowls on very healthy looking
white roots, all pointing in odd directions!
They cannot be presented like this , so what to do, I cannot be the only
one to have come across this problem ( I hope).
Do I have to re-pot or will they "settle down", or is it in the bin with
the lot?
Whats the best, is it safe to remove and re-pot?
HELP!
Replant deeper, they wont mind but it sounds as if they have been a bit too
warm, it can be difficult to get the timing right
