Good morning
Here are a couple pics of my Datil's, with a serious leaf curl issue. I was hoping someone could help out.
I have about 100+/- pepper plants of various species growing, and these seem to have it the worst.
A little background:
All my seeds were started Jan 1st
Homemade potting mix consists of peat moss, top soil, perlite, and homemade compost
Back in early march, I gave all my plants a pinch of bone meal. Approx 2 weeks ago I gave all of them a good fertilizing of Miracle grow with epsom salt mixed in. Last week I gave them a weak mixture of Alaska fish fertilizer.
I bought one of the cheap soil test kits at Lowe's. I know they are not really reliable. But it did show the Ph to be basic, the N to be very high, P to be low, and the K to be high. Once again, i know they are not really reliable
Ive noticed a slight leaf curl in some of the other varieties, but these Datil's have it by far the worst. I know they are ready to be potted up to larger containers, but quite frankly I am scared to touch them
Thanks for the help
