peppers question
« on: June 10, 2011, 07:30 »
Hi all,

I forgot to ask you guys another question regarding my Chillis / Peppers.

I have em in the green house in pots and growing quite well as i previously mentioned.

BUT

I noticed the other day that a couple of leaves from a couple of the plants (not all plants) have some holes appearing in them. I have checked around the plant and green house and can't really find anything that would be eating them.

Any suggestion's please - thanks

Webby.......

I've had this in previouse years and never did find the culprit  :unsure:

Never seem'd to do the peppers/chillies any harm though and always got a fairly good crop.

Caterpillars can be very hard to spot. Last year I had the same problem, and couldn't find anything, and then suddenly I'd see the caterpillar where I had looked so many times before.
Some of them made a hole where the stem meets the pepper and got into the pepper; nasty surprise when you open them...
