Have you guys ever seen this happen on a phalaenopsis root? I have tips growing normally, and then this weirdo. It’s like it’s dividing into three.

    That’s pretty cool and not something I’ve encountered before

      I’ve never seen a root do that at the tip though. I’m watching to see if it starts to separate.

    I’ve had roots split in two on occasion, but never three. They end up growing separately and often one dries up but not always. Interesting.
