Broken Taproot, Germinating in AG

If somebody accidentally broke the very tip off of the taproot of a seed he's trying to germinate, what are the implications? Is it dead or just severely slowed down?

And transferring germinated seeds from a papertowel to the Aerogarden has resulted in several lost seeds, is there a specific method for this crucial step, or key conditions to keep in mind?

If the taproot's fucked, so are your plans for that seed.

are you using rockwel cubes? When I'm transferring from paper towel to cubes I try not to let the tap root get very large. As it's more difficult to insert it into the rockwel. Make sure you have a made a hole large enough. I use [FONT=&quot]tweezers to insert the seed.
