Unfortunately Celestia forgot that sometimes even something meant to do no harm can have the opposite result. I have no doubt that twilight will tell cadence and starlight what happened and they will figure some way to turn into rarity fantasy.
I hope Applejack is immune to the effect... she IS the element of honesty and Spike is cursed by HONESTY root.

That’s the plan
I think with the idea above about Loyalty that Rarity should get it as that would help build the idea of others being loyal to her as the head female in the harem.
As for Generosity I think Spike should also get this one but change the idea slightly from what it is above. It should be when ever he gives something to someone it should be doubled. For example he gives some one 100 bits they actually receive 200 bits. The same could also be try when he makes changes with his honesty powers so he makes some one sluttier but then the generosity power makes them twice as much as was originally intended. If he makes changes to someone’s body like making something bigger it’s twice as big as what he intends.
I think you also need to boost up what the other roots powers are as with the Honesty one it essentially allows the weirder to alter reality and the others seem week in comparison so I think they need to be boosted up to make them a little more balanced.
Magic: The wielder of this power is able to master any type of magic after having either seen it once or read about it. This includes other species magic as well as what would be fictional magic from books that usually couldn’t be used in real life. Once learned they are also able to bestow someone else with the knowledge of this type of magic and the ability to use it (eg giving Cadance the ability to use Changeling shapeshifting magic) (Magic that could be included are time magic and even Draconequus reality warping magic)
Kindness: The wielder of Kindness would have the ability when asking someone if they would like to help/assist or even do something for someone they will always want to do it and would in the future be more willing to perform this assistance in the future (eg Asking someone if they would like to assist in pleasuring someone else, they would say yes and in the future they would be more willing to want to show them this kindness again.) Reality would be rewritten so that Everyone will consider it normal for them to be performing this kindness (eg if they asked a Villian to do something, others would consider it normal for that character to be doing those things)
Laughter: The wielder if Laughter would have similar powers to the main character in this (https://www.fimfiction.net/story/284037/universal-acceptance) where in a situation seen as unusual, not normal or bad the user is able to say something about the situation saying it’s normal and those effected would laugh it off as something that is normal and happens. (Eg Ponies find out about what Rarity and Sweetie Belle are doing and the wielder of kindness would say it’s normal and every who was upset would have a good laugh about having found out and would then continue on as normal as they seen it as just something that is normal)
Loyalty: The wielder of this power would have the ability to make anyone they talk to loyal to someone of their choosing (could be themselves or someone else) and that person would be extremely loyal to that person and willing to do almost anything (short on something that could harm them or someone else) for that person. Reality would then change so that it was seen as that person being loyal to that person was normal (Eg If Rarity was talking to a Royal guard she could mention showing loyalty to her and that guard would switch their loyalty to her and reality would change with that Guard having been stationed to be her protector)
Generosity: The wielder of Generosity would have the power that when ever they give a gift, what is given is doubled. (Eg with money twice the amount that was given is received). The wielder is also able to give gifts just by saying something for example I would like to make you hotter. Reality would then rewrite and make the person hotter but twice as much as what the giver envisioned. The user can not make changes to themselves they can only gift others. Basically Generosity is able to alter peoples bodies as a gift
Hopefully these idea help balance the powers of the roots to allow all of them some reality bending to make them all a bit mor even

Interesting ideas but whilst I know the Element of Honesty is completely overpowered the story would become a much too hard to balance if I made all the other powers as strong as his. Still I like the laughter and the loyalty ideas and may yet incorporate them.
Root of laughter - Wielder will be blessed with a beautiful life free of fear, disease and worries. I know I've already recommended that being one of the aspects of laughter and you were skeptical because of the lack of perverse applications but I believe I've found some. Someone affected by the root of laughter probably wouldn't mind Spike forcing himself on them. You could limit such a power to a single pony or grant them the ability to mentally unburden others of minuscule fears like losing their virginity or becoming someone's property.
Root of loyalty - Upon entering the cave the new wielder spawns a ring (or other piece of jewelry) from their body. They are then informed that ring is meant to be shared with their significant other to bind themselves together and protect their virtue literally preventing them from sleeping with anyone but the ring bearer. You could go full video game slider mode here where the ring would open up a console that allows you to adjust certain parameters (e.g. loyalty, honesty, corruption, love, lust...). Again, you could limit such a power to a single pony or grant them the ability to create rings for others as well. The jewelry aspect would make this a better fit for Rarity and her hesitating before finally gifting her ring to Spike.
Root of kindness - If you don't want your roots' powers to overlap, I think kindness could justifiably grant you mind reading powers. Fluttershy has an innate ability to understand other creatures on a more personal level. I don't think it would be that far fetched for this root to grant you that power. The power would allow you to better understand and help other ponies, or at least that's what hologram shy would say.
Root of generosity - I admit that mater duplication is a neat power, as suggested by Judoon Warrior. It would also prevent the power overlapping I mentioned earlier
Root of magic - I like your idea, sounds broken as hell but sure, why not
11414941 11414877
I like Judoon Warrior's idea for the powers of the Root of Generosity. A ability that doubles the intended effects on others from the wielder's act of generosity or whatever the wielder is giving as a gift will be double. Like Spike would be helping a friend like Button Mash or some other childhood friends to make him or her life better but twice as much as what then the wielder envisioned, like unintentionally making their parents super hot & slutty, making the target more endowed or attractive then intended, or unintentionally giving the targets the bodies of sex demi-gods. But I also like your idea of the Generosity Root powers, a ability that allowing others to give non physical things like their physical attributes or skills and even allowing the wielder to give those attributes and skills to others. I can see Spike using this ability to steal 'junk sizes' from people that don't deserve them and add them to this own or giving them to others like stealing Garble's "manly" and endow attributes till Garble is a feminine and petite looking male with a small junk.
if you limit the generosity to just duplication of material goods then I think the best/worst candidate as the wielder would be AJ.
On one hand, the added bits would help the family farm but it would come at tge cost of her own integridy. Never receiving the correct amount of money for any purchase. Slowly getting corrupted by wealth.

She wouldn’t be able to give stuff to herself as that wouldn’t be generosity. It would only be if you were gifting something to someone (so not just giving change for a purchase)
11416677
The thing is about the generosity idea you have is that it could get out of control far too quickly. It’s already hard enough for me to watch Spike’s sentences so he doesn’t make the wrong change. If all those effects are doubled it would become too unwieldy.
I can imagine Discord proving to be outside the natural world too much for Spike's power to affect him directly... telling him he understand the pleasure of twisting the world, how boring it ultimately gets, and knows the only way Spike will learn is by doing so himself. And that "Fluttershy is MINE!" Forcing Spike to accept 'co-ownership' with him and Discord with Fluttershy. With Discord tricking Spike into making Fluttershy a draconequus (something even beyond Discord's power or he'd have already made of his kind so he'd stop being alone).
