    Default What's this brown goo?

    I bought this cattleya (Gaskelliana) last Feb, near-blooming-size, and I've got great hopes for the most recent growth.

    Then I noticed this brown spot. It's a little mounded, like someone dripped chocolate sauce on the leaf.

    The smaller blotches above and below the big, middle blotch are new in the last couple of days.

    Yikes! What is it and what should I do? I'm really dying for this guy to flower. Help!

    Julie
