Hello! I am new to the forum and to orchid growing in general. I received this orchid as a gift last Father's day and the pot just said orchid spp. It did great over the summer and even started putting out the new growth on the left you see next to the pseudobulb. Around November it started getting these spots and then the leaves would yellow and fall off. It did this for a bit and I thought maybe I was overwatering so I held back and that seemed to have slowed or stopped the progression. So two questions, what kind of orchid am I dealing with and is this a cultural issue or am I dealing with a fungus? I think it might be a brassia from what I have found online.
