Mystery problem on my Phalaenopsis leaves
This mini phaelaenopsis has a problem on two of its leaves that has gotten progressively worse. It started as what looked like water spots on the leaves which I kept trying to wipe off. Then I thought maybe it was fertilizer residue since I had just used (diluted) fertilizer on all my plants. But it has slowly grown into basically an eaten away area that looks like it could actually become a hole on one side at least.
A quick googling turned up sunburn as the images that look most like it (but not exactly like it) but I don't think this is sunburn because they are kept in a grow tent and this plant is surrounded by other phalaenopsis that don't have this problem.
Would anyone recommend removing the leaves? It does not seem to be spreading just getting more pronounced. I am hoping I don't have to remove the plant entirely, it does seem healthy overall, blooming quite nicely right now. really appreciate the help.
