All my banana peppers feel over, what do I do? Also many of my plants fall over like this, what am I doing wrong?

If it's the top/middle of the stem it's probably lack of water! The bottom of the stem could be root rot though, real easy to get inconsistent conditions in community pots which is why people like to sow individually or directly sew the plant into a bed

They’re all the same plant with first time use, but I’m thinking I overwatered, just making sure other agree

It is possible that your water pressure is a lot for them causing them to fall over.

I just use a single steam watering can around the plant, would that still somehow cause an issue?

#### ZenGarden replied on 2025-04-12

Yes, only if the pot you have it in is plastic. It would cause root rot since air is harder to get in through plastic pots
