Your potting soil is the best thing to use now. It drains well, is new, and has a good amount of nutrients to get them through about three months of growth.

Definitely use potting soil, and be sure that the bulbs have several inches of soil both under and over them for good growth. Only use the filler bottles in the bottom of a really deep pot. There are many daffodils that may not return more than a few years for you that far south. If that's the case, don't despair. Enjoy them for now and in the meantime, do some research on good narcissus varieties for the deep south. Scott Ogden has some good books and articles on the subject.

Thanks hopflower and donnabaskets. I'll get potting soil today and get these planted. Thanks for responding. Also, I think I'll remove a few of the plastic bottles--I probably had too many. Next year I'll plant them in the ground but right now we have a lot of rearranging and moving plants around to do--probably won't get done until early spring so the pots are my best bet this year. I know not to plant Tulips in the south but I did not realize some daffodils are not suitable for planting here. I will do more research. Thanks for all your input, donnabaskets.

My bulbs are planted and I'm thinking a good watering twice a week will be sufficient. Am I on the right track or should they be watered more often?

Depends upon how dry it gets where you have them. Usually, test the first two inches of soil and if too dry, water gently. Or, you can water to drainage, then let them dry out in between. Usually, I just add a quarter of a cup or so if the top soil is dry about two inches down. You just want them moist; not sodden. Too much water will rot them, they will use a bit more when flowering though. The biggest mistake people make is in overwatering; particularly when bulbs are first getting started.

Never let your bulbs sit in water, even in the saucer below the pot if you use them. Pour it out if you water until drainage. But you should only water deeply once: when you first plant them. After that, just keep them moist.

Thanks hopflower. I will back off on my watering! I've given them 2 or 3 soakings with the hose. Once when I planted them and a couple of times since. I'll make sure from now on that I don't overdo it!
