I have this issue with several plants on my balcony. I don’t see any bugs on the outside. What could this be?

    How does the soil feel? Has it been overly wet in the last days?

    Do you fertilize it?

    Might be overwatering, (potassium?) deficiency, or heat stress. Probably a mix of those.

      So we had a really dry and hot start of summer I also have a Physalis peruviana (I’m not sure what the common name in English is) for the first time and she really likes water so I figured that whenever she went limp that I should water all the other plants too.

      Now for the last few weeks we’ve had alot of rain and my bell pepper are at the railing of my balcony so whenever it rains they get a little bit of it. So the soil has not really had a chance to dry out.

      I’m gonna put them somewhere where they don’t get as much rain. Thanks!

      I had peppers look like that from over watering last year.

        Yep. Almost all pepper plants only need to be watered maybe once a week depending on the fruit size. Let it go without watering a few more days than you’d normally go, and see if the leaves flatten out a bit, then give it what you’d normally give it, and space out the waterings a bit more until it’s about a week between waterings.
