Mosaic Virus? Trying not to panic...

[Davina]

Hi guys,

Somehow I've stayed clear of diseases for a long time amongst my orchids, but having upgraded to a fully functional greenhouse and thus increasing my orchid collection exponentially seems to have brought up some new problems.

Here are a couple of pictures, both from adult plants as seedlings, that are showing signs of spotting on the leaves.

As far as I can tell, it looks like the Cymbidium Mosaic Virus on a lot of leaves, but being inexperienced with these diseases I'd rather get some experienced advice before panicking...

Any thoughts or feedback would be most welcome, as generally it's advised to discard any plant showing these signs, which I'd rather not have to do of course...
