Are these tubers okay?

I'm pretty new to dahlias, having grown them once from free tubers given to me. They were spectacular and so I attempted to save the tubers over winter (and I divided).

In the meantime, I've ordered some other varieties, and one tuber (just planted a few days ago) has shot up some pretty green sprouts. I planted them in sand, in pots, for transplant outside in a few weeks.

The tubers I saved seem to be sending white roots all over the place. I haven't seen any sprouts yet, but am now wondering if these roots are normal?

I might have planted them upside down or something, because I really don't know what I'm doing.
