I had a mishap. I was pressing down on the moss, checking for sponginess/dryness, when I slipped (I was holding a heavy container of water at the time). My hand moved to regain my balance and unfortunately one finger hit that spike... and *snap*--the tip broke off. I figured "oh well", it's just a root and there's others. I put the tip back on anyway (it has a small "socket"). I have no idea if it will mend itself, or if just keeping the tip on will prevent infection and allow the growth to continue. If it's a spike, I sure hope so.

Anyway, terrific growing you've got there Gage. Florida certainly offers some wonderful growing conditions.
