Default Dendrochillum glumaceum & Dendrochillum magnum

I am not very used to Dendrochillum but decided to give them a try a couple of months ago. Until now, they "have not complainned" about my growing conditions, but are confusing me a little. In the web I have read to water them generously but not too much during winter, or as Phantasm said in another thread "I water mine like crazy in the growing season and cut it down when the weather cools off to avoid rot". My issue is that we are now in winter, and the weather indeed cooled off but my two plants somehow decided to grow (see pictures). Is this normal for Dendrochillum or am I missing part of the story???

Dendrochillum glumaceum:


Dendrochillum magnum:


Furthermore, I have read and been adviced here in the OBF that they do not like to be repotted. I actually would like to move them to S/H but wanted to wait until spring/summer for the best timing (as my logic said it would be). As you have seen, my plants are growing now... so, should this be the best time for moving them to S/H or will they start growing again during spring?

Thanks for any advice!
