My first pepper flower! How exciting! I think this guy is starting to need some calcium. #raisedbed #flower #pepper #sweetpepper #bananapeppers
peppers need magnesium too. 1T epsom salts to gallon water monthly. calcium deficiency shows as blossom end rot. plant looks very healthy
Thanks @moore.794 I was going out to get some cal mag tomorrow. I said this about this plant because the other peppers in the same bed are getting crinkly cupped leaves. I know with some other plants this can be because of a calcium deficiency. I am uploading some pictures of my other peppers care to take a look maybe see if cal mag will fix this? Or should I just stick with epsom salt?
i would start with epsom salts. what is your soil mix? you can google how to do a home pH test. the recommended mix is 5 % compost 95% mineral. some of the wrinkled leaves is damage from when the leaves were developing. @ohhyouknow
I let this one get red for the seeds. Cooked it up in my baby’s dinner tonight. Looks like a fruit roll up! #bananapeppers
