Some of my sweet pepper plants are flipping their leaves so that the underside of the leaf is facing upwards..........is this normal, any ideas?

uuummmh...can't help you on that one, but I've had dwarf beans come up root first

A couple of leaves have done the same on my plants...........dunno why...but the rest of the plant has turned out ok...so i'm not worried about it

Check the packet and see if they're Australian seeds.

Good I dea - will I have to read the packet upside down to make any sense of it....or do you recommend a large (pint pot even) of wine might be the better option

I find that solves all my problems.

Cazzy, you've not spilt any wine on them have you - it might be the answer

I'm sure I read somewhere .... or possibly it was just a vivid dream ... that upside down leaves were the plants defence against to much sunlight

That makes sense ...cos after that happened i moved them from bright windowledge to diffused light in polytunnel, and no more turned leaves

Unfortunately, I have all mine in full sun in a greenhouse and all their leaves are the right way round .... so maybe they really are aussie seeds? :-S

I had this on a few plants for a week or so ... nothing to worry about as far as I know - they are all fine now
