Sick pepper plant
Sick pepper plant
Do any of you fine people know what might be going on here? Leaves are falling like crazy and the frankly looks sick. The plant did have aphids for a bit but that is taken care of now. The problem began before I noticed the aphids and has continued now that they are gone. I fear the poor thing may be dying.
Sorry if the image orientation is off. I couldn't seem to get lemmy to recognize which side was up...
Honestly I don’t think your plant looks like any of the nutritional deficiencies I’ve seen before, but take a look just in case it helps you self identify the issue:
What is your watering and fertilizing routine? Are you letting the soil get dry in between waterings?
Not quite. Where I live it is currently quite hot and sunny so watering every day has been a necessity. After about 36 hours the soil is bone try and the plant very droopy. So I water every 24 hours.
I am using a 2-6-9 fertilizer for fruit growth. Before it had chiles I was using a more nitrogen-heavy fertilizer
