Coriander Severed Roots After 11 Days

new coriander rootsThese brand new roots, complete with root caps, have appeared sooner than expected (see 'Coriander 'Multi-Plant' Matted Root Trim').

Plant has been kept un-watered, at about 17 deg C, indoors and in good light. Compost still quite moist, so should not need watering for perhaps another week (provided it remains indoors); it's just about at right stage for root and foliage growth right now.

wavy coriander stems?
