Help! Tomato & Pepper leaves are yellowing/browning!
Comments (5)I would think the plants should have taken hold in three weeks. Assuming you see no insect pests and the plants are getting sufficient water, I guess it could be draining too fast and taking nutirents with it. I have seen that happen with really sandy soil but why aren't the beans and cukes affected. Maybe the problem is that my experience is with the dirt that came with my house and I know squat about licorice root. You might try to get some nitrogen to the plants with the recipe you mentioned or some water soluable Miracle Grow....See Morehelp! my pepper plants are losing leaves and dying

Comments (4)Carriehelene, yes it could very well be I hadn't thought of that. That plant is at the very end of a row, towards one side of the yard. All the neighborhood cats congregate in our yard, why I will never know. But I don't know what I could do about it? Antmary: thank you for noticing that. Actually for many reasons that pepper plant did not get planted till end of June. It was tiny then. But it started growing so well and had set many small pods. But it is all vanishing now. Maybe the plant will live but I don't think I will get any peppers out of it. Thank you so much, K....See Moredaninthedirt (USDA 9a, HZ9, CentTX, Sunset z30, Cfa)
