    could be a black rot or also could be a lack of calcium?

    The new growths need to be kept dry. When watering keep the water from running onto those small growths and don't let them stay wet when evening temps go down. A spraying program for fungal and bacterial infection would be a good idea and will help keep your new growths growing and green. If you have a small collection, spraying some cheap vodka, rubbing alcohol or Listerine and then keeping a small fan blowing nearby will help keep the infection stuff at a minimum without having to buy expensive bottles of chemicals.

    The red and yellowing of the shoot makes me fear viral but not sure. Is your plant of the red or purple variety? If so the reddining of the leaves is normal but the shoot should not be that color. However reddining can also be caused by the rot but usually not so severely The spotting does resemble rot. Id say u got ur hands full with this one, lol.
