bsharf said:Welcome to the Amaryllis forum. That is a beautiful clump of bulbs. You want to knock the clump out of the pot: You may have to break the pot to remove the clump. Separate the bulbs by hand into several clumps, trying to do as little damage to the bulbs. You could use a knife to saw down between the bulbs, but you do risk wounding the bulbs. I think that it would be safer to "twist" them apart if you can. The roots should untangle themselves as the bulbs pull apart. Some roots will obviously be broken off, but save as many as you can. Repot a few bulbs in each pot with fresh soil. The leaves will probably die back from the stress, but I think that they will come back in the spring just fine.
cwhitt said:@redx - I agree with bsharf. Also - to get them out of the pot, I would gently remove at much soil as you can, then tip the pot over, grasp as much of the bulb and leaves as you can, and jiggle the whole clump out of the pot. After you separate the bulbs, let them dry for a couple of days before re-potting them. This will help the break points dry up and heal a bit, and make them less prone to fungus or disease. Leave any small bulbs attached to a larger bulb, and try to make sure you get some of the roots along with any bulbs you detach. Anytime I re-pot, I either use new potting soil, or sterilize old potting soil in the oven or microwave before using it - that seems to help a lot as far as disease or fungus. I always add some water to the soil before "cooking" it, so as not to start a fire! I "cook" the soil until it is steamy - usually only a few minutes in the microwave and about 30 in the oven -- if it starts to stink up the house, you know it has been long enough!
