I wouldn't recommend doing anything to get keikis. If they make keikis great, but I like to let the plant do it's thing. And definitely not damage the mother plant just to get keikis

You can call me Bob

Your a bad, bad man...

It could work though if it survives the induced crown rot.

Fascinating thread you guys.

No, it is not whole under water. You can use the Keiki Pro and put the spike to the water as a flower in the vase. It lasts a long time and it is not 100 percent method, but you need not devastate your plant. Excuse my English

Sometimes comes to bloom again, sometimes makes keiki and sometimes nothing.

I have to agree with Bob , I just let mine to their thing . I have left some of the spikes on my phals , as long as they stay nice and green and they often reward me with a keiki . So far I have gotten five keikis to grow this way and as long as the parent plant is nice and healthy , I let it stay on the parent plant for as long as possible so the keiki will grow nice and healthy .

Ray, Royal & King,

Great advice. Maybe that has something to do with why I had had so many kekies.
