Why did spike thin out?

I was so excited that a phal I had for a couple of years was finally putting out a new spike. It was growing really rapidly and had several buds at the end. While watering today I noticed that the middle of the spike was extremely thin while the spike on either side looked hale and hearty. The area is so thin that the spike in falling over at that point. Should I cut back? If so, to what point? I am really so disappointed.
