Ross, that sure is an ambitious little plant. Two very nice bloom stalks, very pretty. Very nice growing.

Ross, your plant is beautiful! Lovely spikes. Very well grown indeed!
Jim, 19 buds on one spike! Wow! Can't wait to see that one in bloom.
Mine is still in full bloom and going strong. I checked it yesterday and it appears to be putting out 2 new roots as well as a new leaf. It's also shedding an old leaf. Yay! Roots are good!

Once the buds get to this stage, it won't be long. Takes nearly as long for all the buds open as it did to mature the spike. It's worth the wait. Hang in there!

Ross yours is stunning! I wish I would have had two spikes. I noticed that mine flowers, compared to yours and others, are very squished together and crowded, is there a reason mine is like that?

No clue! I only know how I grew mine and that was with lots of room and on a mount. Other than that, no. I don't.

Well, mine has lots of room, but it is not mounted, but it will be when it is done blooming!

Not sure that's the solution, but have you tried daily dunking in 125ppm Nitogen MSU fertilizer? Just a thought.
