Please help my new cymbidium

I bought a Cymbidium due to its fragrance even its leaves didn't look healthy.
The plant has 5 growth and 4 flower spikes, 2 opened. The plant's leaves are long as 29 inches. 2 growth leaves tip has many small tiny dark mark and slightly
yellowish color. I cut 11 of leaves tip immediately the day I bought it. I also uncovered some green moss grow on top soil in the pot.

A month later those cut leaves tip has blackened and moved surround by a slight yellow halo.

Today I uncovered a unaffected growth has tiny dark mark on one old leaf.

Is this fertilizer burn or water rot?
