5 nubs and new leaf - hope one becomes spike

[JerseyGirlBecky]

Yes, I can believe that. And yesterday I see a nub coming between two bottom leaves and sure looks like a root! So, there goes that theory! He He.

Spike nubbins appear at the 'crotch' of a leaf. BUT sometimes roots appear there as well, so it can be confusing. Usually each 'crotch' only makes ones spike (though I've had cases were I snapped a spike and a new one came from the same spot), and in general the next spike appears one leaf further up from the previous spike (so on the next leaf, on the other side of the plant). I have one Phal that spikes quite randomly though, and will bloom sometimes bloom 2 or 3 leaves up from the previous spike.
Anything white is a root for sure.
