UK September: Just received some dahlia tubers in the post with a little bit of damp soil (dwarf variety), some have small floppy green sapling, so will follow this method, storing in a box with holes, newspaper and perhaps a little more soil in a dark cupboard. very helpful. thanks.
I got plastic tape and a so called permanent marker, then found all the writing smudged off and I had no idea which variety was which. Grrhh. Hey ho, should be an interesting garden look this year.
Thank you for sharing this information, this method of storing is just perfect and good idea about leaving a glass of water to test the chill. We have no need for that yet idea is great.
One confusing point - you note early on that air circulation during storage is important, but then you bury the tubers in peat and say they "shouldn't be exposed to air." This method must work but seems contradictory, especially if tubers are layered in the boxes.
Love watching your videos I will be buying some tubers from you guys first of next year looking for to seeing you guys put out new flowers for next year. Oh by the way, do y’all still have the thick cat catalog so I can buy it when I place my order.
Great information,however it would have been more user friendly if the taking was done by both of you.l meam Erick looks like he knows a thing or two about Dahlia, s...otherwise ,well done.😊
Eric has never been permitted to speak

This was phenomenal information! My first year storing them coming up!
Thank you for this very helpful video. Just subscribed and going to order the catalog now:)
This was very helpful. Thank you.
Where can I get plastic crates like you have in the video?

Love this! Thank you 😊
Would you think rice hulls would work for dahlia tuber storage? I’m sure I’d have to hydrate much like you recommended for vermiculite?
Should we use cinnamon on any broken skin? It is anti fungal and antibacterial.
I do and don't have mold or rotting problems.

Erik is the hands-on expert, but was not given the opportunity to even speak. Cheeze.
