austin87 said:Those look like broad mites to me. They are not visible without magnification. Get some Azamax ASAP and nuke them per the instructions 2-3 times over the next 10 days.
They severely slowed down my season last year so get them as soon as you can.
austin87 said:It might. I would apply as directed and make sure to get every single surface, not top and bottom of leaves. If your plants aren't that big you may be able to do a 15 minute submerge in a bucket or tub.
^ I dont agree that that is what the OP has. Yours may well be down to cold nights etc, but the curley new growth in the OP's first pics is not the same as your pics, and the bacterial spot in the last pic is another issue and more similar to your plants.solid7 said:It's not mite damage. The last picture looks like some bacterial spot. Don't worry about that one.

You do NOT have mite damage.

I just posted a picture of an Aji Amarillo that looks just like what you've posted, and I can assure you that I don't have mites. In my case, it was cold nights that did the deed. All of my new growth is fine.
That is some sort of environmental issue. Cold/hot, PH swing, something. Very common here in Florida. (if I had to guess, I'd say wet roots on a chilly night kinda thing)

Here's the link to my post. Mine has some browning, because it's a bit older damage than yours:

I could care less about organic. Do you have a specific product recommendation?Trippa said:Broad mites would be my first guess ... Best organic solution as proven by science and first hand experience is wettable sulphur ... Neem based products aren't nearly as effective (some control but not enough) as sulphur (which is approx 80-90% effective). If not staying organic there are multiple systematic miticides which I personally stay well clear of.
I know you didnt ask me. But lime sulphur (liquid) is what you need.mas_fuego said:I could care less about organic. Do you have a specific product recommendation?

I am really looking for a specific product recommendation from Lowes, Home Depot or Amazon. Can you link me to anything?
And can I do that submerge thing with it diluted? All my plants are still in pots 2 gallons and under
Lime sulphur is different to wettable sulphur in terms of amount of actual sulphur contentnzchili said:
You could do the submerge thing if you wanted. Your plants will come out looking like crap though and it would take quite a lot of concentrate to make a containers worth large enough to dunk a sizable plant in.
You need to dilute it anyway, submerge or not.
Lime sulphur is exactly what its called..in my part of the world anyway. This is a link to a local product we get here that I use, but I would assume you can get the same thing in your part of the world. Might put you on the right track at least.

edit; maybe this, its got the same active ingrediants as the one in my link above, but is more concentrated. (i.e you need to water it down more)
