It got some yellow spots and the leaves are all alittle krinkely. Sadly I don´t know the strain anymore, but it´s a quite a hot pepper. I bought it for 2 bugs at the farmers market. Is ist very sick ?

    Honestly, looks like it maybe needs a bit of fertilizer, but mostly time after the transplant. I’m no expert, but all my hot peppers take forever to really get going.

  2. Less water, curly bubbly leaves are a sign of overwatering

    Do you have a preventative for pests? When my plants curled like that I had broad mites 🫣

    Inconsistent watering and/or calcium deficiency causes that wrinkling most often. Inconsistent watering meaning bouncing from too dry to too wet so try to lower your water volume and increase the frequency, this also negatively impacts calcium uptake. I use Biomin Calcium in my peppers, tomatoes, cannabis, and would add it to basically anything that’s a calcium loving plant or one showing symptoms of calcium deficiency, it’s just a great rapid calcium fertilizer and is phloem mobile as a foliar spray which for calcium is not common.
