    Geoff, they should be allowed to grow on now for a good couple of months or so.
    Are they outside in the ground or in pots?
    Either way they need to grow good leaves that will build up a good bulb for next year.
    Later on you can dry them off and store them dry until the autumn when you can plant them again. [​IMG]
