forced hyacinths blooming before fully risen out of bulb. Why?

I planted in a pot and pre-chilled leftover hyacinth bulbs. They barely grew and started flowering while still down in the bulb. What causes this and how can I prevent this? It has happened both times I tried forcinghyacinths, once in water and now in potting mix. Any experts out there?
