A new gardening question of the day appears every day of the year on the front page of Almanac.com. Below is the answer to one of the questions from our Gardening Questions and Answers Archive where you can find over 400 more gardening questions (with answers!).
Can I store my bulbs in plastic bags through the winter?
You can use perforated plastic bags, but nothing airtight, and don't use this method for bulbs that tend to shrivel. Consider using trays with screens on the bottom, and store only disease-free, healthy bulbs. Keep the humidity level at 50 percent and check the bulbs monthly.
