Green Pepper Problems

Question

Our plants were so healthy with many peppers on them. Now the plants don’t look so good and the peppers seem to have stopped growing. They have developed brown, dry splotches and are unedible. What can I do to make them healthy again?

Answer 1

It sounds like your peppers have developed sunscald. This is a result of too much sun on the fruit. We recommend shading the pepper plant with a translucent cloth cover.
