Hi,
I just got this sago palm from the store, and I got a new pot for it today and went to replant it when I found this:

If the weird colored thicker roots are rot, then why is healthy roots growing out of them? Or is this not rot?

There is the sickly looking skin covering all the thicker inner roots, and it just comes right off like it is rot. And there is a bit of root rot, but there is healthy roots coming out of the thicker roots covered in the weird skin.

There are also weird little balls and lumps coming out of some of the roots.

Any ideas? This plant is sitting bare in my bathroom waiting to be planted, but I don't know what this stuff on it is.
