HI,
I have a question about mums?
I have several in pots, they get enough sun and I water everyday but =
they are turning brown (the flowers) and I have pinched the heads. no =
new heads have come back yet. The leaves and stems are fine, just brown =
flowers. Am I doing something wrong?

Depending on the weather, it make take several weeks to rebloom after
deadheading. If you're north, some species are going dormant already.
Might be too late. :-(
