Silver-white discoloration on Dendrobium Leaves
 
1 Attachment(s)
I am relatively new to orchids, having recently inherited quite a few. I have a dendrobium whose leaves rapidly developed silvery-white discoloration about 2 weeks ago when I moved it outside. I have done some research, and I think its spider mites. However, I am not 100% sure and I want to treat the right thing before it becomes a problem for my other orchids. Could someone please have a look it and confirm? Thanks!

Looks like it could be sunburn to me.

I say sunburn too.

Florida summer has come, and the sun has been merciless, so you guys are probably right. I was freaking out about the wrong thing. I am moving this little guy back inside the house.

Thanks so much for your help :)
