This spotting is insane
Several months ago I purchased Den. Firewings (12 canes) from a seller in Hawaii that couldn’t get it out of the pot, so he cut down the side of the pot and deeply into the dehydrated rootball. I whined and he said, of course, “trust me, I’ve been doing this a long time.” So it languished and developed bizarre spots on leaves before they dropped with only green spots left on yellow orange leaves. It finally gave up the ghost and I pitched it. I really wanted a Firewings, so I ordered one from a Louisiana nursery that sent me a pristine orchid with new growth that I planted in semi-hydro. (Yes, the previous one also went into semi-hydro because I was new to SH and didn’t catch the new growth thing in all the info I sifted through.) It is crazy that this new plant is developing the exact same spots. I do not share any water whatsoever and none of my other dendrobiums and orchids are affected. Is this something that only Firewings do? Will it snap out of it? Do I need to take some action? What the heck is this? See picture.
