I know that sulfur with oils is a bad idea because it will cook leaves, but I'm trying to remember whether or not Azamax triggers the same problem since it isn't real neem oil anymore. I think I've used them together without issue, but I'm not 100% sure.

Anyone have a good method for treating them? I was going to use a systemic treatment but that's not good for eating.

Solanum quitoense and Solanum pyracanthum just flat out stopped doing much. Pyracanthum has been growing smaller, notably less prickly leaves for the last month before it stopped. They don't seem to be starved of water or nutrients, but I figure I should ask you guys before I change anything...

Aeroponics pepper that I solved the problem on was doing well and full of peppers, then I adjusted the timer to more mist and it started wilting a few days later. I don't think the roots are rotten since most of them are still white to light brown so I'm not sure. Any chance of recovery, or...

Solanum quitoense is having some issues. Leaves start off really nice but turn yellow and brown spots within a week and fall off. It's not a pepper, but it's close enough that I figured it's probably suffering an illness that peppers do.

Kpakpo shito getting chlorotic leaves. I think it's nitrogen but I just want to confirm with you guys because there shouldn't be a nitrogen deficiency. Some of the other plants in this system are kinda pale too. Any advice on what to add? The roots look great.   Edit: Forgot most important part...

Half my plants are in pots that have very dense, heavy soil that makes them grow badly. How do I add perlite to it without screwing up the roots too much?

I replanted everything into large pots about three weeks ago, and they promptly got sunburned. That happens every year, but it's been three weeks and they haven't entered a phase of explosive growth to get their leaves back. Temps have been high seventies to low eighties, partial sun, not much...

I was going to buy some S pyracanthum, then I remembered I saw some being grown by people here. Anyone have some for trade or extras by any chance.

The leaves just started wilting a couple days ago and now it looks like this. All my other plants are happy, and I have no idea what happened here. It wasn't underwatered,  it's not crawling with aphids, no visible diseases, temperatures aren't particularly bad, but it died. Any ideas?

Last year, I did some experiments with peppers and polyploidy, but those were kinda goofed due to lack of proper equipment. This year I do more research in a much more professional way, on the fast plant Brassica rapa and the sundew Drosera adelae to see how polyploidy effects sexual and asexual...

Chiles are about half of what I grow, so here's everything else. Pictures when you ask about a specific plant, because I don't want to take time photographing all of these.   Carnivorous plants: Drosera rotundifolia Drosera capensis Drosera adelae Drosera filliformis Unknown pygmy sundew Drosera...

I have a bubblegum plant that produces large pods, but the calyx is green. It's still oversized and impossible to mistake for anything else but a bubblegum, it's just that it isn't red. The pods aren't fully ripe yet and were started when the plant had an issue with broad mites. Would this be...

Browsing Today I Fucked Up, and found this one. I thought you guys might like it:      https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/3h5opj/tifu_by_smoking_some_carolina_reaper_peppers/

I was walking through the yard to get all the frogs out before the lawn gets mowed, and then I saw these guys sitting there. They're about six or seven inches tall, one of them grows in a clump and one is solitary. I thought they might be peppers or something very close, but I wasn't sure. I did...

These are on one leaf of a brain strain, and they feel kind of plasticy. The leaf is much thinner in these parts of it. Any idea what it is?

I'm having some trouble deciding how to treat them. Neem oil will cause problem with pollinators, and most other people say not to use miticides on things that will be harvested soon. Water treatment is unfeasible because the plants are tall, so what would you guys recommend?

Bubblegum 7 pod has this stuff on leaves, and is dropping them and flowers. Any idea what it is?

This stuff is on a BB7, chocolate bell, liebesapfel, and maybe a pink tiger, but I can't tell because the pink tiger has darker leaves. Anyone know what could cause the leaves being eaten? Also, the black stuff is dry, and peels off to reveal perfectly normal leaf tissue underneath it.

I've been trying to get peppers from different parts of the world, and since my chocolate scotch bonnet seems to be on its last legs from bacteria infections, I figured I'd get the psuedo scotch bonnets from West Africa as a replacement. Pepperlover is out of stock, so I thought asking people...
