Just a thought but worth discussing ....
Brown Bacterial rot it seems affect a lot more than orchids and in fact one of our common food items may carry it ...The Potato.
Having recently lost a favorite plant to this pest I was googling it and found this little bit of knowledge and then snapped to the fact that I had indeed had a bin full of potatoes in fact with a bad spud in it and had cleaned out the bin ....but I did not even consider that this was a potential orchid killer on my hands and that I needed to use bleach on the bin, or sterilize the sink...where I do in fcat often carry my chids in s/h to flush and water at times instead of the bathtub.
Am I correct in that this is the same brown bacterial rot that infects chids or not?
