Topic: peppers

six of 8 my pepper/chili plants look quite pale with pale green fruit - have treated all plants identically and they are standing on a bench in the greenhouse. On these 6 fruits seem to be emerging ok - tops of plants all look ok but several lower leaves are drooping and slightly curled - no leaves have dropped off.

any help with this would be appreciated - mike

Hi Mike. Is it possible that the compost in the pots is too wet and compacted? Peppers like to be kept on the dry side, you might try repotting into fresh compost to give them a boost.
