My wife put together several glass vases with pebbles to grow bulbs in (tulips, daffodils, crocus, and Dutch iris). They started out well, got to the point where the flowers were about to open, then things went south. Mold started growing on the bulbs, the water became cloudy and stunk, no matter how much we changed the water it went bad in a couple of days.
She has now transferred the bulbs to soil filled pots. I really liked the look of the pebble filled vases with the bulbs showing, but can't stand the smell and they were probably going to die. How is this done without the water going bad?

The water has to be changed daily from the first day.
You can also put an aspirin in the water
How often should an aspirational n be added to the water? Is that what would have caused my bulbs to mold? So far, Ive thrown 3 bulbs, but it seems to be spreading.
Thank you.
