Just to be sure we understand: If the crown (the octopus's head) is mushy, but the roots look great, it still won't survive. The plant has to have a firm crown, the central ball (or sometimes stem) that the roots are all connected to, in order to put up new growth.

They won't regenerate from roots alone.
