I agree with Kiki. You're going to end up with some root loss either way. If you leave the moss on the roots will eventually rot, if you pick it off there is bound to be some breakage. I guess my preference would be breakage. Broken roots will branch and carry on. Rotten roots have only one option and it's not good.
