How to store tulip bulbs

If you do not need to collect seeds after tulips bloom, you should cut off the remaining flowers in time to allow the nutrients to be used for the growth of new bulbs.

Digging up the bulbs

Start digging up the bulbs when the tulip leaves turn yellow. Too early or too late will cause unnecessary trouble for the tulips. When the bulbs are dug up, the soil needs to be removed. Put them in a cool place and put them into paper bags according to their sizes.

Storage bulbs

Newly dug Bulbs should be stored in a well-ventilated place for cultivation, preferably indoors. Since tulip stems, leaves, and flowers need to differentiate during storage, the optimal storage temperature should be 15-18°C.

During the storage process, bulbs should be checked frequently to see if they are rotten. If found, they need to be discarded in time to prevent the occurrence of rodent damage.

How to improve the fruiting rate of tulips

Tulips need to be sown and propagated so that better seeds can be obtained. During the flowering period, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be increased, and watering should be reduced for artificial pollination. When tulips bloom, the pollen will fall off, so it needs to be divided in the morning, placed in the mature pistils in the center of the flower, and bagged three times in a row. After the fruits of the plant are fully mature, they should be collected in time, placed in a ventilated place indoors, and the seeds placed in paper bags, waiting for sowing.
