my black berry plant has one yellow and red leaf at the base. what does this mean?

Soil: dr earth’s potting soil mix  
Full sun: 4-6 hours  
Watering: very regularly  
Pest control: cayenne pepper (that’s the orange stuff on the leaves)

Oh nice how does that cayenne work? Mine is just perpetually infested with anything I just can’t keep up!! It’s still kicking tho

so far cayenne is working but i’ve only had the plants for about 2-3 weeks now

Cayenne pepper ruined my vegetables, they were thriving, I sprinkled cayenne pepper on leaves and in soil around the plants in my raised bed, next morning, all the plants were wilted and white, managed to keep a few plants, however had to prune them to down to stem, been a few days now so hopefully they grow enough to produce a harvest. Maybe I put too much, unsure as to why it didn’t work, I can’t seem to keep up with the pests this year. Keep us posted on how it works for you, maybe the amount used could be the difference! Happy growing!

oh wow that’s crazy. it might also depend on which specific plants ur sprinkling it on / how much (like you said)

I hope ur plants survive! Will definitely update further into the growing season
