I dug around in the pot tonight & found out that the bulb is firm with fresh new roots coming out. > > It was growing on a south-facing windowsill without supplemental lighting. (Same place I grow my Hippeastrum seedlings.) Does it need stronger light than that? Does it need to stay wetter? I was letting it dry out between waterings.
