wandering jew help

I rescued a pore little wandering jew starter from a girl at work that was letting it rot !!!! The water was all dirty and there were 4 pieces trying to grow roots in that nastiness. I told her I would take it home and clean it up a bit to see if i can get it to grow. Well.....I got home and noticed 2 of the 4 stems were gone. They were too rotten to start anything so I cleaned the other 2 stems remaining and put them in a hurricane glass with water just to see what they would do. Well, they started rooting and putting out tiny beautiful purple and green leaves. So I put the 2 starter stems in soil.My question is I do not want this plant now in soil to become "leggy" and "stemmy" . So do i pluck a few of new growth and put it down in the soil with the 2 stems that are currently growing? Will they be ok? I want my wandering jew to be bushy!!!! Please help!
