Abstract

GENTLER, kinder people don't say ''forcing'' when they talk about planting bulbs indoors. They use words like ''coaxing'' and ''persuading.'' Poppycock. If you are putting bulbs in the refrigerator or some other cold place that hovers around 40 degrees, you are tricking them into a false winter of dormancy and forcing them to bloom when you bring them out into a warm room.
