hi
well..........I stored my begonia tubers in individual paper bags, but forgot to check on them........none have rotted, but most have started gowing in the dark and bolted
should I simply cut these shoots back and restart them in compost with light ?
advise welcomed urgently !!
thanks
john

Plant them as they are - now!
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
What do you mean by 'bolted'? Do you just mean they have started to grow? Or do you mean they have flowered already in the paper bags?
The advice is good. Plant them!
