Yes, this would be the place to ask!
Besides
@gemini_sage,
@Newyorkrita and
@Cem9165 have planted 1000's of bulbs before! All three would be your best bet for planting 1000's of bulbs. Rita got me started on digging 10 inch trenches a couple of falls ago. I've done that, as well as, dig 6 inch trenches too. It seems in the short and long run, to dig trenches for planting bunches of bulbs is better than to dig individual holes for bulbs. I hope they all chime in to give you their info for planting 1000's of bulbs. I'm still a 'newbie'.
