We have hundres (or even thousands) of blind daffs.
Is itworth dividing them and adding some fertiliser, or will they always be blind. Idon't want to spend hours digging holes and bending over doubled tofill them if nothing happens next year!

I know how you feel Goofy, I've tried to revive some of mine in the past but never had any luck.  However one small clump has flowered that didn't last year & I didn't do anything to it (obviously fancied a gap year)!

Hope it works!

Quite a lot of mine are blind too. I read up that they might need feeding with potash to produce flower heads, but that will be for next year now, when the leaves are starting to grow through.

Hope that works as I have a lot of foliage on display now.

I had always thought that daffs came up blind because they hadn't been planted deep enough.

I would agree with Woodstock 9 times out of 10 not being planted deep enough is usually the problem.
