Hello all! This spicy boy was thriving about 2 or 3 weeks ago, and now he looks like this. He's just slowly shed leaves. All of my other jalapenos are doing Just fine, I've even got some fruiting. Can I save him? He was startied from seeds and don't want to give up on him.

Are there any little webs it might be spider mites if there are. I have a jalapeño plant and had a similar issue a couple years ago. It looked just like yours. I used an antimite spray from Lowe’s and trimmed any leaves that were super infested.

I haven't seen any webs, but I will check again. all of my plants are on a second story balcony, but bugs are crafty. Thank you 😊

He seems big enough to be going outside for a few hours a day. If he stays inside all the time, his leaves will start to wilt. It's been happening to my dad's plants since we live in a 6-7 zone and have a LOT of cold rain. Make sure he gets natural sunlight since a grow light isn't giving all the benefits now

I started him and a bunch of others inside, and I brought them outside about a month ago. I live in zone 9a so we get warm early. All the other plants are thriving and one is fruiting, several are flowering. I'm not sure how to save this one.
