Tips on Brodiaea cultivation

I've been trying for the first time this year to grow from seed
several Brodiaea species, alongside a number of other bulbs from the
Western USA. I'm happy to report that quite a lot of seed has
germinated but I'm uncertain what to do next. Others have told me
that I shouldn't attempt to prick out bulbs grown from seed until
their second season, at least. I'm also not sure how to treat the
seedlings when they go dormant in terms of water provision. Does
anyone on this forum have opinions or advice that they'd be prepared
to share with this total novice? You can email me directly at
tom@evolution-plants.com or reply on this forum if you think others
might be interested.
