@pirl - so you don't divide your tubers until spring? I have always divided after digging in the fall, but then I also always end up with some that don't have eyes.
I finally tossed the last dozen tubers that hadn't shown an eye yet, they were all extras for give aways anyway, but at this point my grow room is bursting at the seams and there was no point in keeping anything I am not sure of.
About 2/3's of my dahlias are above the soil line now. Its warm enough that I am starting to put a few things out on my porch, but only things happy with cold weather - lilies and snapdragons so far.
I went out this morning and bought two more lamps - but after they are full, there is absolutely no place to hang anymore.
12 trays of Dahlias, 1 tray of cuttings (persian shield & angel wing begonia) and 28 trays of seedlings (annuals/vegetables/perennials), It takes a good hour every morning to check and water them now.
