HELP, Please

Sir,
I planted Tulip and Hyacinth on 1st dec. I read tulip and Hyacinth requires 6 to 8 cool weeks for root development. When they have developed roots then they give good flowers and tolerate early summer heat. only 8 cool weeks (1st dec to 30 January)are here in lahore and islamabad.
My Hyacinth in pots started sprouting today. and Hyacinth in jars started spreading roots.
waiting for tulip.
its my first try on tulip and Hyacinth. Let's see what happens.

Can liliums be pinched for bushier growth?
