I hope it's a root, because this little dude needs more of those!

Looks like a root to me!! I've been seeing a lot of those lately on most of my phals.

Root. Spikes form much higher up on the plant. Usually between the top two leaves.

I don't dare give an opinion as I usually miss spikes until they are nearly ready to bloom.

The new root's really coming along!



This is especially important because the plant now seems to be losing its only long root. Broken and hollow at the top, but still firm and bright green for the rest of the length. It's taunting me.

(I already cut the flower spike, which kind of hurt to do because it was just starting some new growth out of a node)

It's putting out two more root nubs now, and is also starting a new leaf!
