KentPfeiffer said:My pepper plants all look like that at some point during the year, although it usually happens in late May/early June. I've never figured out exactly what causes it, but they always grow out of it and look good later in the summer. It looks like there may be three or more plants in that pot? If so, that's probably too many and you might want to thin them to just one.


I agree - my peppers sometimes do that, too, with no longstanding effects. Not likely too much sunshine, since peppers love full sun. Could be overcrowding in the pot -- or, could be nothing. Shrug!
