Q.Should I Cut These Out Down Or Leave Them Be?
I had covered my tulip bed with leaves and cardboard, today I uncovered them (Feb 15th) and found these long shoots. Is there anything you would suggest I do or should I just call it a loss and hard lesson learned?

I would leave them uncovered as they are and see if the increased light sends up better shoots.
