Should I put the basals in my live sphagnum pot and hope they root or do what i would’ve done anyway?

I realize it’s a mistake, treated it the way i would’ve treated a ping basal

Are there any roots left on the division? If yes then it should be okay. If there's none than you can use the leaves to propagate more plants. Grao leaves strike pretty easily...and if that long root is still in the pot it also could grow another plant..

You can't go! All the plants are gonna die!

there’s like one or two short roots left on one, the other is empty. On suggestion from my bois on the carnivorous plant discord server, i’m floating them in water to rehydrate them and then i’ll olant them in my live sphagnum culture and seran wrap it

Yeah, pushing them into substrate a bit, and bagging/wrapping them up is a good idea. I have done that when I ripped off roots from my sundews accidentally a few times.

Your "boi from the discord" has actually been here for way longer than on discord. :p
Good luck, and keep us updated.
