With Pleiones, they recommend putting the small bulbs in with the large bulbs to prevent rotting as the little bulbs cannot use water fast enough and will rot otherwise. I think that that is also the theory behind a compot. There isn't much root or need of water for those little seedlings yet they need to stay moist...putting more together helps to dry things out faster.

I have tried various plants to repel insects and the only one that I have found that works is one type of wormwood that I grow...and...it really works. They have done studies to see why this is so and it contains a few types of compounds frequently used in pesticides. (Hint: Don't drink the real absinth.)
