Ok my Caladium died out and the bulbs are in soil. I placed them in a dark closet like suggested on another site. It also said not to water until Spring. This app still has it on a watering schedule. Also says my room is too dark. Is there anyway to note the bulbs are dormant?

I dunno. Mine died, but are sitting in the same pots on my lanai. Knowing them, they will sprout in the spring.

I just keep hitting snooze 🤣 it finally stopped telling me to water my outdoor plants so maybe it knows some things 🤷🏻‍♀️
