I’ve been water propagating my satin pothos cuttings for about a month. All the roots are black and then turn white.

Are they healthy?

I was gone for a bit at the holidays and so couldn’t refill with fresh water for 9 days, but wondering if these roots are fine because they’re white at the ends, or rotted because they start out black. Thanks!
