    Default Dendrobium keiki question

    Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around much and missed reading/viewing a lot of postings.

    Anyway, I need advise on my Dendrobium moniliforme keiki. My hands are itching to yank the keiki of the mother plant but worried that it might not be big enough to survive by itself. The keiki is about 6" with 4 roots of a little over an inch. I read about the 2" root rule about keikis but not sure if it applies to miniatures.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
