Can I winter Mum cuttings inside?

Grove City, OH

I absolutely love Mums. I haven't grown them in years and purchased some very healthy plants this spring. Early in the summer I started two cutting and they now look like mini mums and have little flowers on them. Several weeks ago, I snipped 4 more cuttings and planted them in a single pot and now I don't know what to do with them. Can anyone tell me what to do next? Do I continue to feed them through the winter? Do I seperate the newest 4 cuttings and put into their own little pots? In short, What do I do now?

You can repot the small ones and keep them all going over the winter and set them out in the spring.

Thank you so much. I will check out the links you provided. I don't have a lot of good windows for the little plants to get direct sun that I can put them in (my pooches would eat them!) so hoping my kitchen window provides the sun they need.
