Apparently it’s not broccoli season (and I don’t have a greenhouse ). I’ll take that mistake but hoped I could keep it healthy until then. Suddenly it looks infested now?

My bell pepper plant is doing well but does this look like it’s being eaten at? I know I need to get a cover but this is a whole new world for me. Lots of trial and error which is why I started small.

First two pics are broccoli. Third greener pic bell pepper plant.

Side note. Tomato and jalapeño plant are doing well at least!

I don’t know much about broccoli. Pests are eating your bell pepper i recommend using a eco friendly organic pesticide. I personally use water and dish soap, though it dose depend on your dish soap type so be careful!
