Default Phal spike with no buds in the bracts

I have a Dtps Purple Gem (coerulea type) that put out 2 spikes in June. The spikes developed nicely, but something very strange happened. The lower 3-4 bud bracts on each spike never developed a bud inside them. It's not that they blasted at very young stage, they simply never appeared! The top of the spikes are fine, there's nice buds there. Anybody ever heard of this, or know what causes it? I've never ever had a Phal do this until now.
