Peppers Performing Poorly
Our peppers are not well. At first, all of the lower leaves fell off. Now, the plants are spindly looking and the leaves have brown spots on them. We are really disappointed because peppers might just be our favorite vegetable. But, we are somewhat mollified because all of our neighbors' peppers are doing the same thing.
Someone said it is a bacteria that lives in the soil. When you water the plant, the bacteria splashes up on to the lower leaves and proceeds to kill them.
I don't know if this is true or not.
Adam and I haven't given up on them yet. We have mulched them and are looking into some different fertilizer for them.
