a few roots is a ok, damage t many and your plant cant maintain current growth.

if you damage a large portion of roots take part of the palnt off too

yes it is a tough plant...i ripped over half the roots on a plant once and it lived, it didnt grow for like a week cause of the shock, but after that it took off...

I figured becuz as the FAQ's says the leaves control the roots and the roots the leaves and if you cut a leaf it doesn't die so why would a root stop it
