Thanks, I think I know what you mean now.
Does early aggressive pinching helps to tame them (pot mums), as a way of shortening the hard stems? Then you'll get smaller flowers.
Unrelated, Chinese has a tradition of grafting chrysanthemums. I remember years ago seeing a magnificent piece of 10,000 blooms on a display in a hotel lobby. If you want to play around with grafting. Here are some examples.
