The only treatment we use is an insecticide before we store them to kill thrips. Last year we had no thrips so we didn't even do that. If your ground freezes in the winter, you will have to lift them & store during the winter. We store at about 40 to 45ºF. seems to work & that temp keeps them from sprouting in storage.
