Charleen,

There are several good posts on separating the pups but before you do, know this. I believe that the group is divided as to when this should occur and if it should occur. I guess part of the answer is what do you want or what are you trying to achieve? Again there is a division as to whether or not the pups supports or drains the mother plant. Personally I don't have experience but from my reading I feel the pup does not hurt and it benefits the mother and the pup to leave them attached for awhile at least till the pup is producing true leaves.

Just my opinion and probably not worth much.
