I finally did what I'd always feared. I broke a flower spike that was
about 6" high and very thin. Should I cut off the rest or is there a
chance it will continue to grow from the break?

I'M SO MAD!

It's a phal. There's about 4" left.

if there is a node on the stem left, it will sprout a new flowering
stem from there.

I know how you feel I babied mine for so long and then I broke the
spike so I am not sure if it will ever flower again. I don't have a
bud or anything I do keep taking care of it I transplanted it and the
leafs are doing great but no spike.

we've all done it. and we'll all do it again. not to go all BSG on
you, but "this has all happened before."
