Default Rotting pseudo bulb

I have an oncidium with a rotting pseudo bulb. It's rotting but still has nice green leaves. Should I wait until the leaves die or just cut it off now.
P.s. It just started new growth.

Could that be sunburn?

Actually yes. You're probably right. I did run into some high Temps a while back. Thanks for mentioning that. I thought it odd that it just started rotting. So if it is sunburn, do I just leave it?

The entire pseudobulb may die, or it may survive with a dry brown scar. I would not cut it off because it might still be able to make new growth. Treat the plant normally; don't worry about rotting.
