Additional question regarding propagating Sanservia!

Can it be done in early March (now) in a northern state (Ohio) where the house gets a little chilly (60 degrees C) about 12 hours of the day?

I ask because we had a warm spell (go figure) for a few days and my snake plant took his cue to just explode out of of the pot. Okay, I'll admit it, I put a little fertilizer in its water last month.

One shoot basically started curling outside the pot and growing upside-down!

I want to cut and place in soil and propagate but I am worried about the cold.... What do you think?!

[When I tried in the spring a couple of years ago I had the same problem as above and also found more success without the plastic bag trick...so I think I'm ready to go as long as the time of year is okay...]

Thanks!!!
