Hello, orchid people!
I have an issue with a Dendrobium that I bought about one month ago. I bought it from IKEA, so I have no idea what kind of Dendrobium it is, all I know is that it was cheap and since I've never owned a Dendrobium before, I wanted to give it a go. Unfortunately I didn't notice that it had some black and yellow spots on the leaves and in my opinion they have definitely spread during the time I've had it. It also has an odd "hole" in one of the canes and in between the canes there's some sort of webbing, but I don't know if that's just from usual spiders or if it's yet another thing that's wrong with this poor plant.
I'd love it if you could tell me something about what's wrong with it and what to do about it. I've tried to Google to see what other people have posted and I've looked at tons of pictures, but I can't really find anything that looks the same as this.
The spots are both yellow and black. The yellow spots are not very visible and they don't cover many of the leaves. The black ones however are kind of sunken into the leaf itself and they cover many of the leaves. Some only has one spot, others have more and one has a whole cluster of them.
There are also some black spots on the canes.
Here come the pictures!
