With staking you don't want to do it right at the edge because usually that's where many roots are present. I tend to stake 1/2" to 1" in from the edge of the pot and try to avoid the roots that are there (you're bound to hit something but there are usually fewer roots in this area). Oh wait, you're not in the US...umm...1 to 2cm then.

I'm pretty sure the little nubbin right under the root is the spike that is being mentioned, but I could be wrong.
