The keiki or the mother plant? The keiki has about 8 roots, all around 1" long. The zombie mother plant probably has more, but we're not talking a fabulously healthy root system here! My main question I guess is that is it necessarily bad to let a keiki grow on a weak plant, will it divert energy from the plant- I don't care about the keiki surviving, I'm more interested in the zombie plant of doom!
Thanks!
