Purchased some diseased cattelya, hoping to save them?!

[rehric00]

Okay, I have several orchids, and of course, my phals are doing the best..

I must tell you all, I purchased one in mid Jan, it stayed in bloom through Aug, dropped its flowers in Sept and Is in bloom again... Its crazy, I know..

But anyways- I was at Lowe's the other day and they had a clearance rack with small baby cattleyas for 1$. I could tell as soon as I picked them up why they were on clearance... They smelled so badly of mold it was gross. But I got 2 of them anyways. I soaked the roots in fertilizer water as soon as I got them home and repotted in a more suitable medium. The roots did not look too bad, I have seen worse. However, the leaves have lots a black diseased spots on them.

How do you all think these plants will do with proper care? I am hoping I can save them, as they were only 1$ each.

Any advice is appreciated!
