My mom gave me some tubers she bought at Canadian Tire and I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the things the Internet says you’re “supposed” to do.
I put them in ziplocks with a bit of damp soil and seems like a couple of them have eyes… I’m not really sure what to do now?
Do I divide them or just leave them to keep going?
Any advice welcome!

This is an automatic reminder regarding r/dahlias Rule 3:
When reasonable*, posters should make a good-faith effort to identify which variety/varieties are shown in their photo(s). If you don’t know for certain, please say so. Someone will usually know!
*Common-sense exceptions to this rule will be honored, such as if the photo does not contain a blossom, or if your photo contains large volumes (such as in wide field shots).
If you’ve already done this, thank you! No further action required.
If not, please add a reply to this comment and confirm if you know the name of your dahlia variety/varieties shown in the photo(s). Alternately, if you’re uncertain of the variety name(s), it’s ok to say that, too.

Plant them in the ground.
Being a bit facetious here… what do the instructions on the packaging say to do? (Probably just to plant them, cover with an inch or two of soil, water lightly at first.) No need to do anything more complicated despite the multitude of advice on the internet. You will do well!
