what kind of chemical to delay the flowering of gladiolus?

Dear esteemed Friends, 

After cutting flowers of gladiolus, I put them in cold storage with temperature ranging from 2 to 4 Celsius degree.

I think before storing gladiolus in cold places, we should soak them in agents - kind of chemicals to slower its time of blooming.

Please suggest me some name of agents if possible. Thanks so much friends.

Yours sincerely, 

Le Minh Hoang

    Not something I know anything about and I'm personally not keen on using chemicals for this sort of thing.

    However, I have found this which may be of interest to you http://www.actahort.org/books/91/91_12.htm
