Lilium bolanderi question

Hello all,Another request for advice. This year I had seven Lilium bolanderi seedlings germinate after almost six months in the frig at 51 degrees. That was in late May. Now I don't know exactly how to treat them going into winter. They spent the year in a cool room in the back of the house with only indirect light. That room is now cooler and darker. They are now in a bit brighter room in the house, but it is about 60. That may be too warm. I have started to let them dry out  but they seem willing to stay green. Do  I force them to dry out or grow them until they yellow. I think I want to avoid moist soil when they stop growing. Should they be cold? These are a bit out of the usual for me. I mostly grow bulbs that are ok with winter wet and my outdoor temperatures. I essentially have outside or in the house as options. We just had some rain but now we are in for a few weeks of 72/48 day and night temps. Any help would be appreciated.Arcangelo WessellsVallejo CAnorthern California
