I'm not the right one to give advice on wildcats, I've killed so many of them already. Still end up buying them though, cause I really love them.

Eh...I would cut that one away. That bulb looks pretty bad. Or, hang on a second...on the last picture it still looks green on the inner leaves. Maybe it would work to just peel of the outer leaves completely, or at least as far down as you can.

My experience is that when orchid leaves and bulbs get that...transparent yellowish-brownish color it is beyond rescue. Not the plant, just the one bulb or leaf. But I would remove to make sure it doesn't spread to the rest.

I agree. Probably about 85% of the times ive seen my growths like that they end up dying, but i have had them pull through and make a new healthy looking growth. Might be smart to cut it off and not risk spreading to the other bulbs though. Idk. Maybe some others will input.
