Hi all you bulb mavens. I have a question. I live in North-central Massachusetts and my bulbs are mostly up, except for the later bloomers. The ones that are up include tulips, hyacinth and daffodils. The tulips and hyacinth are looking good, but the daffodils....well, I'm not so sure.

I'm new to all this so please forgive me not knowing the proper terminology. The green parts are up to about three inches tall, and some are beginning to show flower buds. But on many of them, the tips of the green parts are more yellow than green. A few are coming up completely yellow-ish. One is even has a yellow, horizontal stripe about midway down from the tip. (pictures below)

I'm pretty sure this means something, but I'm not sure what! Does it mean that there's too much of something in the soil, or not enough of something? Or is it just indicative of the flower color to be?

Very grateful for any advice. Thank You! in advance!
