Chillis under attack
« on: August 02, 2007, 18:02:42 »
Something is eating the leaves on my outdoor chilli plants but I can't spot what it is.   It's never happened before - any suggestions?

Snails have been trying to eat mine in the greenhouse - could be those blighters!  Only the leaves not the chillies though.

Yes - just the leaves. Will have a snail search tonight.

The leaves on my chilli plant got attacked by tiny bright green caterpillars which are hard to spot.  Removing the affected leaves worked.
