# Hellos, me and my significant other have recently put this pepper…

_Gepostet von The curious cat am 2023-06-28_

Hellos, me and my significant other have recently put this pepper plant in the ground about a week ago, the plant was completely healthy and green, overtime of having it in the ground it has started to develop white spots on the leaves, I have done some research and have gotten different results on what it could be such as a sunburn on the plant or a disease, and it seems as it’s spreading throughout does anyone have an idea on what this could be?

It looks like a nutrition deficiency. Could be an imbalance in pH. I'd check the soil with a cheap soil meter and see if that's your problem. Add nitrogen (fertilizer, kelp meal) if soil is too acidic. Too alkaline, water with citric acid or dress with coffee grounds and then water. Peppers can be fickle. They want lots of water and don't like to get too hot. I'd also pinch the suckers so the plant isn't stresses by all the new stems. Good luck!
