Looking for some advice on how these shop bought peppers are doing and whether I can do anything to help them.
Images 1 and 4 are of chilli’s that I got sun scorched so I pruned off the damaged leaves and then noticed they had root rot so repotted it.
Image 2 is of a plant that was pretty yellow when I bought it but it seems to be recovering after repotting.
I have potted them all in a mix of perlite, vermiculite Epsom salts and bone meal. I’m letting the soil dry out before watering and will use a seaweed feed.

As much as I did like using cloth pots they do more harm than good imo, depending on your climate they get absolutely roasted by the sun and need to be watered more than once a day. I’d recommend putting some garden friendly straw to retain moisture and move them to a grassy area instead of the concrete that’s also assisting in the roast. Could also be the Epson salts, I’ve never added to my peppers. Good luck!
