All the dahlia tubers I've received so far have gone into baggies with some damp peat/vermiculite into a crate that sits on top of my grow lights. As they eye up/sprout I'm putting them into barely damp potting mix in 7 inch pots and put in the greenhouse. I'm trying to get a jump on them having enough growth to survive the heat of summer here. Light watering once they have good sprouts on them. I'll put them in a raised bed as soon as our temperature starts staying above 50 at night.
Stocks and snapdragons are in already. Still waiting for warmer nights for the statice, clary sage and phlox to get planted along with the shasta daisies and the pinks/carnations. Things are getting close to being root bound thanks to the crazy weather and the late planting.
