-----Original Message----- Russ , your plant looks like it may be suffering with Aphids. peter g Peter: Nope. These plants have never been outside and they're clean as a whistle. Thirty-two pepper plants and only this one exhibits these symptoms. That's why I also posted photos of its sibling plant... it looks perfect and they've been side-by-side for almost 3 months. Any other ideas? Thanks, Russ
