Chilli Plant Growth Deformity

Timbok
9 years ago

Hi All,

read a whole bunch of stuff about different kinds of issues that this might be but havent been able to find anything conclusive yet or any kind of treatment.

basically the plants start growing great, absolutely killin it. leaves are big all healthy happy etc. then they develop the crippled leaves as in the picture. is happening to almost every chilli and what i think are capsicum plants in my house (i have about 25 plants).

i avoid touching the plants now but still seems to get around. im hoping its a deficiency but it is happening to plants in pots in completely different soil to the ones in teh ground.

the leaves are very leathery and crippled. i did give a dose of potash to some which seemed to help them along with producing but the new leaves are still small and stunted.

does any one have any thoughts on this?

Cheers in advance,
