You did a great job of cleaning them up Kyla.
I wouldn't separate the very tiny ones, that have not yet formed rosette shape. The others can be separated if you want, or left attached. They can go quite awhile with no moisture, like weeks. Since cold weather is coming. just mist the top of the soil, plant and top dress with chicken grit. You don't want the potting mix to be wet, the combination of soggy soil and cold is what can harm them. They will be better off out doors, the drop in temperature will not harm them. You can place them in a protected area so they don't get excess amounts of rain. Freezing and snow will not bother them.

I fixed your above post, I found that the quote had been placed twice. I deleted one of them.

I look forward to seeing your little ones this spring. It will be interesting to see what they look like then. Hurray!
