Hello, everyone. So this is a different plant with a seemingly different problem, which is why I decided to separate it. Recently I received an order from Ecuagenera. These plants all seemed healthy, although some had a little fungi on the soil/root system developped because of humidity (disclaimer: I made this order through a third party importer, so Ecuagenera can't be entirely held accountable for the state the plants arrived in).
This beautiful Gongora gratulabunda came with gorgeous, impecable leaves, but then I placed it in a rather warm room and one day or two I think it got sunlight through a sheer curtain. This curtain does have a few holes because of the decorative design, but I still believe it couldn't have gotten sunburnt because of that. I changed it to a cooler, well-lit with indirect light space, but say, today I saw new spots appearing:
This tiny spot you see right where my finger is didn't exist yesterday.
On the rightmost pseudobulb you can see a black vertical stripe. This one was there when the plant arrived, but it wasn't soft, mushy nor wet, so it didn't concern me. While browsing this page (
Orchid Diseases ), the most likely thing seems to be anthracnose (assuming it really isn't sunburn), but I want to ask the more knowing to play it safe. What do you think this might be?
Thanks in advance for all your comments,
Stan.
