I've had this lemon lime philodendron cutting since October, and it really hasn't done anything since then. It's rooted in the little nursery pot to the point of having a root tip peeking out the bottom, but no changes above the soil. The top end of the vine appears calloused from the initial pruning process, so I doubt it's going to start growing again from there. The only available node for the roots to grow from was the same node that the bottom-most leaf came out of, but feels firmly set in the pot at this point.
Does this plant just need to establish a very strong root base before I see any more noticeable changes? When it starts growing again, where is it going to sprout from?

Just a little patience. When a cutting is establishing itself it focuses on root production. As the pot starts t to filled up with root, the vine will take off. New vine will sprout from where the leaf is attached to the stem.
