Chilli Plants.

My chilli plants are going black where the leaves and flowers/fruit are emerging. Like little black bands. I have them in the conservatory. I have not over watered except once when we had that hot spell a few weeks ago when I had them outside and they got caught in a deluge. I note this morning they are covered in greenfly too, EEEK. Anyone know what is causing the black bits?

 

It's quite normal Rhyleysgranny, chillies usually make black bits like that and on the stems. Once the green chillies start to turn red the first thing you might notice is black markings on the chillies. Don't worry about them, they turn red.

 

Yes.. my Cheyenne are just the same... phew

 

Cheers Alice. Advice noted. Just the greenfly to tackle:hh::thku:

 

its on mine too so don't worry
