Is this Erwinia? Or something else?
Hey everyone,
Just got a new, healthy phalaenopsis tetraspis C1, repotted it in fresh spag/light bark mix and watched it for a week before adding it to the indoor collection. On the second week, I noticed a small brown spot towards the tip of one of the leaves. It looked sunk in and like the leaf was trying to turn clear before turning brown. I sprayed with physan 20, but that didn't seem to phase it. The next day it was clearly bigger, and the day after that it appeared on two other leaves. I have cut off the affected parts, sprayed with physan 20 (waiting on a systemic medicine to arrive via mail), and it remains in quarantine. Is this erwinia? Or something else? Are there any other steps I should take to possibly save my plant? Here's a photo of one of the smaller affected leaves:
