About keikis, I think you need to reconsider the causation at play. Some plants produce Keikis when they are unhealthy, as a last chance to sustain themselves. Thus sometimes keikis are associated with unhealthy plants. But that does not mean that the keiki is killing the plant, rather the keiki is produced because the plant "thinks" it might die and the keiki might survive. Heck it is entirely possible that the keiki is supporting the damaged mother, not draining it.

Also some phals produce keikis naturally. I have two which do it all the time - its really annoying as my wife wont let me give them away to "unqualified" owners, and they take up space that I could use on other types. :-)
