Lilies and more lilies, need help :: Flower Gardening

The majority of the plants are young plants. The main large plants have only started to come through in the last few days. I thought the main bulbs had died so I did nothing but now I have to know what to. Can I seperate them now and not kill them for the year? Should I wait and seperate after the flowers die off? Wait until the greenery dies off and seperate and transplant in the fall? Can I simply take the whole thing and transplant them into a larger container so they can grow and have a better chance to survive and then seperate and trasnplant in the fall after foliage dies off?

Or can I simply transplant them to a larger container and not seperate them leaving them to mother nature to cull them out? How much fertilizer should I feed these monsters regardless of what I do with them?

I imagine they are root bound and intertwined beyond anything I have seen before. I don't want to damage them so bad that they die and I lose my main bulbs also.
