Cryptic caves

Apologies for the rather poor quality of this clue, but it'll do to keep things going:

Boring spouse – sounds like she's healthy (4,4,4)
 
I think the OMG was a bit of a red herring. Then Spock is an original Star Trek reference (although strictly he was only half Vulcan), and his top backwards gives the second word.
Meanwhile, try this one:
Fringe Pot? (6, 6, 3)
 
It's not easy to come up with a hint without giving this away. For now, I'll just suggest that the letter count should narrow down the options.
 
OK, time for a more substantive hint. The clue is perhaps a bit indirect - in fact if there were such a place as "Fringe Pot" the phrase you are looking for might serve as a clue to it. Oh, and an anagram is involved . . .
 
Somebody else has been very slow in providing a clue, so I'll throw this one in. It is certainly cryptic, but in a common sense non-technical way (I hope).

"Something wrongly spelled with idiosyncratic capitalisation and punctuation, ended a week this Wednesday"

5,3

It is a very obscure cave.
