Pre-soaking bulbs could lead to fungus/mildew/rot. If you're worried about the bulbs getting off to a good start, go ahead and plant them and then use a good bulb-food fertilizer or water with a manure tea after planting.

No. Bulbs should not need soaking before planting.

Actually soaking bulbs can wake them up. 2-4hrs works. Then you can make a solution of tea, baby shampoo, mouthwash & warm water to dip them in to protect them from bugs & fungus.

Absolutely not. Been planting them for years. Just put them in the ground.

No. I think you're just supposed to keep them frozen.

NO, unless of course you want them to rot.
