Cambria with 5 new PB's and no spike.  Why? Male
Default Cambria with 5 new PB's and no spike. Why?

Hi everyone. I'm new here. I'm not exactly a newbie with orchids, but I'm certainly a far cry from being any type of expert. I found out about a year ago that it is possible to over-fertilize orchids. Oops... But, my Phal's are recovering nicely with new growth on spikes on one of them and new leaves and root growth on the other.

However, my cambria-specific type unknown- is continuing to produce new PB's, though each one seems to be smaller than the one before and they are all very leafy. I discovered a couple of months back that the accordion-like pleats in the leaves mean I wasn't watering enough, so I have increased the watering and the new growth seems to be smooth and healthy. But, still no spikes. I'm a pretty patient person as long as I know what's going on. I just don't know what's going on here and would appreciate some insight.

I am currently making sure that it gets cooled down at night in an attempt to spur new spike growth. I'm only fertilizing every 3-4 weeks.

What I'm wondering about is if I should definitely re-pot at this point. Could it be that the pot is too crowded now? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a million!Attachment 56032
