I also tried (for the first time) having my plants spend their dormancy in
the fridge. They all appeared fine when I took them out, but some have now
turned to mush.

What have I done wrong?

Hello all. I have taken my four cobra lilies out of the fridge and
starting to acclimate them. One didn't quite make it, one looks
like it might have some trouble, while the other two are fine. This
is the second time I have put some plants in the fridge for 5
months, and I actually had a better success rate this time. This
time I just let the plants' soil dry up till it was slightly moist,
threw them in a ziplock, and put the in the back of the fridge.

Maybe the ziploc created too much humidity? Would they have been
fine w/o a ziploc?

What's everyone elses success/methods for keeping the plants alive
for so long?
