Should I cut??

I have this polka dot begonia I’m propagating on water.
She has grown so many roots in a very small amount of time.
Something I saw today is that she is growing a leave right in the middle of where the roots are growing.
Do you guys reckon I could cut it and propagate them separately? I would cut where the black line is.
Or should I just leave it propagating as it is and the bottom leaves just dies when I have to pot it??

Yes you can but make sure to cut below where the stem and leaf attach.
Yes
That's so cool. I would cut it and have two.
@AstroMind I πŸ’― agree with @Jilliansue2007
That is awesome! I have 1 that has been in water for a bit and I am getting roots like that but no leaf yet. The original leaf has died back some but it seems to be moving along regardless. I’m so glad to see someone else doing this too. Mine got broken off the plant accidentally and I just stuck it in water to see what would happen.
@KDkat3 I’ve had that happen to I’m trying to propagate mine
Noooooooo put it on soft dirt
It need’s more than water now
