Are you sure that those are the same nubbins?? Those first 2 really look like spikes, and in the recent pics the nubbins are much smaller. I'm really Hun?? about this transformation!

You are so right Camille. I thought I had uploaded 2 Phal photos. I tried the KP on 2 Phals. The first photo, definitely grew weird spikes? the second photo which didn't upload is the one with the keiki.(Does that make sense??) Anyhow, it is like watching paint dry, this keiki is slowly growing bigger by each week. Boy they take a long time. I've just got to look after Mumsy, mollycoddle her a bit. I wonder if she would like caviar tonight?Haha. Thanks for your input and insight in detecting the mistake.

Are those roots or flower spikes coming off of your keiki? Maybe I'm just looking at it wrong.

Paul, I have looked at this, time and again.The growth on the left, def. has a big leaf, what is coming out to the right (??) at the base of the spurt I don't know. 2 inches below this is another growth,little stubby thing def. not leaves. This keiki paste does weird things. What do you think.Hey, my Phal. has 2 keikis, what next?-img_1335-1-jpg

Lol, yeah, keiki paste really does weird things! I'm really wondering what the thing on the left is. The thing is the middle looks like another keiki? Paste induced keikis always look so grotesque in the beginning! Hopefully you'll be seeing roots soon too.
