The bulbs use up a lot of their energy to produce the leaves and flowers, and it doesn't get put back until after flowering - don't move them until the leaves have started to flop over and die back (you can speed things up a bit by dead-heading the flowers.)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Mmmm, can I suggest that you could move them as soon as they have flowered?

That is "in the green".

That's the way I have recently received some wild daffs, bought online.

However, if you do this, don't let them dry out, firm them in well, and water them and feed them.
