Hey All
So I think I have a problem with a few of my pepper plants, So on one plant the leaves just started going tough and are very dark, they are almost like citrus leaves now and have a very shiny upper and lower side and a brown stains. I cut it back which I was planning to do anyway and new growth is not very happy. Distorted.
Here is the plant next to it and similar things seem to be happenning to it now. A few others nearby also have this browning on the underside of the leaves. Also as you can see leave discoloration on the upper side as well.
These plants are not getting fed anything but the bed the bed has a lot of horse manure and compost, egg shells and other organic elements added. Could the bed be over fertalized or this a disease of some kind? The bed was totally shaded for a while but the sun has shifted in the sky and they are now getting some nice midday sun. When it rains the suckers could be getting seriously drenched from below. But its been quite dry for a week. They are getting some water every few days.
Any help would be appreciated. The peppers in pots nearby show none of these symptoms. Which makes me think its bed specific. These are also super hots and other varieties in the same bed seem ok, or at least do not have this issue.
Here is the bed.
