Default African Violet Leaf Starting to Root? ...

Hello ...

I posted here several weeks ago, asking about rooting an African
violet leaf from a plant that had suddenly stopped doing well.

The plant continued to not do well, and so I placed a leaf in water
and have had it in water since then. The leaf is now starting to show
tiny little fiber-looking strands -- very thin and, at this point,
only a fraction of an inch in length -- very slight.

What should I do at this point? Should I leave the leaf where it is?
Will the strands get longer? How will I know whether this is a leaf
that can actually begin a new plant? How will I know when to plant
it?

Many thanks for any advice at this next stage of rooting -- at least I
hope this means it is rooting :-) ...
