Update on my pepper plants, theyre looking much healthier now, applied the beauveria bassiana once, and did an intensive neem oil treatment every 3 days(now 4 days). New leaves have grown albeit still a bit crooked, but much better than last month, one of the plants even started to grow flower...

Another update, I think that my pepper plants probably have root aphids.., theres this white material that looks a bit dusty ontop of my soil which I originally thought was fungus but it doesnt exactly look like a fungus, I will send a pic when it turns day, do you guys have any suggestions on...

One of the plants got a lot of aphids on the newgrowths, weird thing is there seems to be no aphids on my 2 other plants even though theyre next to each other, and the aphids seemed unphased by my first dose of neem oil 2 days ago.

Hi, thanks for the suggestions but unfortunately I cant repot for now, is there anything else that i can do to help the plant? Maybe raise the soil PH using citric acid? As for the airflow, I beleive they are getting enough airflow since my balcony is quite windy most of the time. And for the...

Update on my plants, (tested the neem oil spray on a few leaves before spraying) Just did the first dose of neem oil spray today, after starting to flip each leaves i noticed a bunch of ants creating a "nest" ? Theres these bumpy green spots that the ants were protecting, then noticed a leaf...

Ah okay, thanks a lot guys. Im gonna do a test badge on 1 or 2 of the leaves to see if they get damaged before i just spray the whole plant, Ill be sure to give you guys update on the plant's condition, Cheers!

So what do I do now? Do I spray with neem oil, if so what dosage should i use? Im worried that its going to be a repeat of what happened to my first pepper plant, gave the dosage that most website suggests, plant dies of overdose anyway.

And also this thing, should I be worried?

Oh, got it Thanks :D. New update, just looked VERY VERY closely at the leaves of the plant, noticed a few small bugs (brown in colour) and when I touch them, they jump. Heres a picture, not sure if you can see it, its the light brown elongated thing near the vein

Sorry for asking this, Im still a new grower. But, what do you mean by the ph shouldn't matter because its a soilless media? Won't the plant get nutrient deficiency?

Saddly, no I dont have a microscope. But I do have neem oil. Its grown, uh "semi outdoors"? Its on my balcony, receives around 2-3 hours of direct sunlight and theres no walls surrounding my balcony. And if its worth mentioning, my plant has a few ants, but judging from their low numbers, I...

The plant was invaded by whiteflies a few months ago, but I havent seen any lately since its raining season

The pot is big, its a 25 litres grow bag i beleive. Drainage is also good, the soil retains moisture, but any excess moisture gets dumped out (by retain I mean that the soil can maintain its moistness for around 2 weeks). But the soil is super alkaline. I used 50% roasted husk which is...

Hi, my pepper plant leaves are curling downwards, but theyre not flimsy, they have some rigidity, and mostly happens on the younger leaves although some older leaves are also starting to curl downwards. Loads of newgrowths, but theyre small, deformed, and slowly turns necrotic, now the older...

Hello Ive got an update on the plants, theyre doing much better now! Gave them some foliar spray to help with the nutrient uptake, soil is still base but it went down by 1 ph, its rainy season now, and aphids are gone even without neem oil. 2 of the plants even started growing flowerbuds! But...

Thanks, turns out I indeed was just overreacting, its not a disease, just figured out that my soil ph is 8.... Yep I've actually read the indicators the wrong way around, this whole time i thought my soil was acidic. Basically I mistook alkaline as acidic :scared: , im going to get some citric...

Yeaah, i had to lower the quality of the pic because the file size was too big to be uploaded :lol:.

Hi,after winning a fight againts aphids, I now have a whole new problem at hand, my leaves now have yellow spots on them (Bacterial leaf spots)? Or am I just overreacting, and the newgrowths are yellow, the bottom leaves are fine (except that it has the faint yellow blotches) its just the top...

Thanks everyone for your help!, Started treatment with neem oil and the aphids seems to have scurried off, cant find a single aphid on the leaves! Bad news is that, it didnt happen fast enough, now my pepper plant has faint yellow blotches on its leaves (Bacterial leaf spots)? And now i have a...
