Re: Extemely stupid noob questions
Richard, I read both just after you posted links; the PDF is on my desktop for future reference.
My interest is in dividing corms which would probably be post fruiting since doing more than remove pups before would, I assume, result in no flowers. Not potatoes? This is a direct quote from the PDF. Plants may also be propagated but [sic] dividing up a corm, much like a potato, and planting the "eyes" or small pups which are forming. (Bolding is mine.)

In the analogy, the pups are the eyes and you separate them from the mother corm.
