Green Chilli Dying

Post by ka_khan »

In Feb this year planted some green chilli plants.It got fruit but From last week the plants are dying.The leaves start curling then drying.
Is this due to changing weather or any disease?Also want to know how long a plant bears fruit before the cycle ends?

It may be because of mites.carefully check the leaves under side.mites are very small so not easy to see them.curling leaves are clear indication of mites.

The plant is developing flowers? Or the buds are turning brown?

Kamran sb, my guess is that there is a root rot due to monsoon, please check one of the affected plants roots by a gentle tug or by digging out some soil.

The plant was developing flowers and happened so quickly that some of the fruit also shrinked.The leaves get brown and the plant dies.

Maybe there is a burn due to sun.
