When starting AM,I always try to have some of the bulb above soil,I think this allows the sun to warm the bulb,you may want to slice of the mush,repot it,so a little is above ground.
I would run it on the dry side for a little while also,if you see any nubs,that look like where the side shoots will come from,be sure to have them pointing up.
This one has 3 babies.it is a slice I took off the bottom of a larger bulb
