Just want to add that the pinching method is easier and faster, but division of the plant can save a rosette when the pinching method does not. The part of the plant signaling "bloom and die" does not normally go to all of the divisions, but will remain in an undivided rosette. So, you may need to make a decision about how important it is to preserve the variety and use that to help decide what to do.
