    pests Leaf Curl... Bugs? Mites? Nutrients? Any guesses?

    Hi everyone   I have not come across this malady before..... but this is only my third year of growing so I'm no expert.  It's not aphids, I know that.  It is affecting only these 4 plants of the 30 I have.  They are all different pepper species.  Any guesses?   Thanks

    Solo Cup Transplant.... holes in bottom? Two cups? (Newby Here)

    About solo cups....... I'm a newbie and am ready to transplant into solo cups.  I notice some people use 2 cups .... one inside the other.... and some don't.  Is this for drainage?  Do you put holes in the bottom of the cups?  I'm sure it's super simple.... but what's the best way? Thanks.
