Hey guys
I went to India for two months after leaving my bhut jolokia seedlings with my Mum to transplant and look after and when I came back, she said they took off for a while and then they just stopped going. What's wrong with them?

+1. yeah they look infested. Might want to try some insecticidal soap or something along those lines to control the aphid/mite problem.

Good luck!
 
like what sandgroper said .. mites.. its leaves are hooking downwards and stunted growth. just clear the infestation and they will be back as usual. give a good spray.. especially under the leaves and isolate the plants. these mite loves humid and less sun. they are sensitive to heat. 49C water can kill them..
 
Little bastards. They are aphids.
Will 50C water kill the plants though?
I don't have any insecticides and I don't really want to use any so some organic solution would be great...
Stay tuned for pics of the plants that took OFF ;)
 
i would recomend to flush them out of the plant then spray whatever you want on the area where u flush them off.! some strong detergent..! it would kill them..
repeat it untill u see no more aphids.!
 
Is there anywhere not infested with ladybugs though? I know here I even have them in my apartment in huge numbers spring through fall.
