• Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
    Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
    Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Someone knows what it's happening? HELP!

By the looks of your pics, it appears the media is not retaining any moisture. Those pots look dry and the plants appear to exhibit severe dehydration. The pots also appear to be about 3 gal in size and I had to water every day when I grew in them during our summer.(Not nearly the extreme you would experience in Mexico).
 
Agree with capcom,it looks really dry. Smaller pots need more watering due to it losing water much quicker. Plant could have been stressed and couple that with the fungicide it could have added to its issues,at first we didn't see it was in small 3gallon buckets with dry medium and fungicides being added. Did you grow them successfully before?

Sorry, I'm just going to bring this up one more time, because there's a lot of guessing, and one obvious point being overlooked...
.
YOU HAVE PLANTS IN A GREENHOUSE IN A HUMID SUB-TROPICAL CLIMATE.
.
Or, to put this another way - why aren't your plants outdoors?

Hi Capcom,
 
Well, I constantly watered my plants 1 time per 2 days ensuring that all the pot were completly hidrytaded. When watered everyday the substrat start growing something like moss. So each week I used to stir the pots. Pots have a volume of 1.5gal (5Liters).

Hi,
 
We usually start growing plants in greenhouse all the year long, this is the first time that we present a case like this. My partners are actually surprised just like me.
 
I have another partners growing pepper plants at the same time and almost identical conditions but all my plants began to colapsed. 
 
We try to avoid vectors that could transmit diseases or virus, like flies or mites but I also think it is not working very well.

It really appears that you have some soil born fungal condition. You may want to have your potting mix analyzed. I don't know if these plants are being grown commercially, but it is probably still worth knowing. A super easy way to find out, would be to plant something else in one of the pots, and set it outside, to see how it grows. (or not)

Where I live, we have high relative humidity, like you - and for this reason, nobody uses greenhouses, unless they are air conditioned. (which can be very expensive) Only in winter does it work well.
 
Ridiculous question, but I noticed that the floors in there are extremely clean. Do your planters have any holes in the bottom? Maybe the dirt is simply too wet.
