Wash off all the soil from the roots under lukewarm water. Be gentle because leftover soil can cause rot. Trim away any mushy, black, or damaged roots with clean scissors. Then place the roots in a glass vase or jar filled with water. ——— Bright/ind light !! Make sure that the roots are the only things that are in water!
