Question Re: bulb potting compost

Question:
Is there a page/source/website, on which one can find the "formula" or
"recipe"
for planting bulbs in pots and the technique for over-wintering
the bulbs in the pots?
I am learning such valuable info on this site and appreciate all
that I read. Thanks to all for making it available.

The company that I get my "miner's" garden tools from is in Portland,
Oregon, but they also have Internet sales:
http://www.dk-nugget.com/

They have the excellent one-piece plus rubber handle stainless steel
trowels in a number of sizes, metal sieves that are very sturdy, and
larger-mesh indestructible PVC sieves that I use for soil that I mix in my
bulb potting compost. Also, a large range of topographic maps of the US
West, and books on various subjects, and geologist's hammers and so on.
