Seeing as the plant has already been forced to rebloom from the cut spike once, it's probably best not to force it to bloom again. I usually leave the spikes on as long as their green, and then cut them off while their completely brown. That way if the plant has decided it's done then the spike with wither, but if it feels good enough it may surprise you again. However there's nothing wrong with cutting it all the way off if you want.
