I've got this one phal...thing will just NOT stop flowering. This
might sound like a good thing, but the spikes don't have much 'Umph'
once the flowers pop. Flowers are usually small and not in too much
quantity.

It's just sprouting another spikelet that will make three (after 2
already !) currently on the plant. I really wanna give this thing a
break, so it can put more resources into one, large spike.

Go to Sleep !



heh. i've got one like that too; i should *really* cut the spikes
but it's still green and healthy and growing roots and leaves so i can't
quite bring myself to do it.
