The roots haven’t outgrown the pot. The soil is still damp, so I’m not inclined to water yet. It has drainage space between the bottom of the plastic and ceramic pots. It sits in a south facing window. Any tips? ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/KcB0BSI_boppipiHDlqW-oxEtfsuCyJMWffaJNOrbls/aYNk5CL6TtyY0blXwBsF7A.webp?size=large) ## 11件のコメント ### Aishaさんが2024-10-13にコメントしました No tips but are you sure that’s a pepper? It looks like a tomato. ### Erinさんが2024-10-13にコメントしました I agree it does look tomato-y! But yes it’s a pepper, I’m the one who saved the seeds from the pepper. ### Sunnyさんが2024-10-14にコメントしました It’s a tomato plant. 🍅 It needs at least 8 hours of full sun or 12-14 hours under a grow light. Low or insufficient light can make it pale and limp. Insufficient fertilizer can make it pale and limp, as well. Use a fertilizer specifically for tomatoes, high in phosphorus. Tomatoes and other vegetables need to grow in big pots, 3 gallons and bigger. You have to repot repeatedly until it’s big enough for the larger pots. It’s very late in the growing season or I would recommend planting it outside in a pot or in ground. It’s tricky. #### Erinさんが2024-10-14に返信しました thank you for your input, but I assure you that it is indeed a pepper plant. I cut open a pepper and saved the seeds from within. Definitely a pepper. Not a tomato. #### Sunnyさんが2024-10-14に返信しました Wow! It’s the jagged leaf edges and fuzzy texture that are throwing me off. The recommendations are the same. A fertilizer higher in phosphorus and potassium is good for the peppers. ### Sarahさんが2024-10-14にコメントしました My pepper plants did the same when I started them from a seed. Even though I had them in a sunny spot they still needed help from a grow light. They finally got a stronger trunk when I stuck them outside. I would suggest a grow light. #### Erinさんが2024-10-14に返信しました thanks! ### eatyacarbsさんが2024-10-14にコメントしました serrano and jalapeno plants both have smooth edged leaves — all pepper plants that i’ve grown, in fact — bell, poblano, all smooth edges, no fuzz #### Erinさんが2024-10-14に返信しました folks, i don’t know how else to express that the seeds from within a pepper have no choice but to grow into a pepper lol #### Sunnyさんが2024-10-14に返信しました 🤣 ### Aishaさんが2024-10-14にコメントしました This plant would like to identify as a tomato but is, in fact, still a pepper. 😆 --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
