What’s up everyone I’m back with more plants and more questions. I just received a macrophylla today and while I was trimming it I noticed something strange, that my clippers weren’t centimeters away from cutting off a dead leaf, but what appeared to be it’s root. I’m pretty sure this seedling has been growing with its roots partially outside of the spag. What do you guys think I should do.

I would cover it up with a small amount of extra media or some moss. That should keep it from getting too dry.
