# I came out this morning to check on my garden beds and noticed this…

_Posted by Daril on 2024-05-27_

I came out this morning to check on my garden beds and noticed this large amount of leaf fall - bright green leaves that were perfectly fine yesterday. It rained over night and has been raining quite a bit. I also found a few aphids and sprayed the plants with a soapy water + peppermint solution yesterday. Any ideas on what’s causing the green leaves to fall??

Have they been falling other nights that it hasn’t been raining? If they haven’t, it’s probably just the wind and rain.

No, no leaf fall on non-rainy nights. This is the first time it’s happened.

I believe it is just the rain.

Is there any way to save or replant these baby peppers that got blown off of the plant?

You can try to propagate, but I think that they are to small.
