Cycnodes W.D. out of synch? Spike?

My inclination would be to continue to water (lightly at least) , whatever the plant is doing... it is definitely not the time of year for dormancy. (When you bought it in March, it likely was pretty much dormant) My guess would be "new growth" ... you'll know if you see roots. I wonder if the plant had been grown in the southern hemisphere, or had its seasons "adjusted" to get blooms for a show.(If that's the case it may take a year or two to get fully into synch with its new home) If the new addition does grow roots, they'll likely reach down to the medium. (I have several Catasetinae that started keikis on the side of a pseudobulb, that have done just that. I just let them do their thing, I'll make adjustments next winter when I repot, but let them do whatever they want to do at this point.
