Those are some beautiful peppers! I'm glad to hear that Mark dodged COVID--hope he's feeling better, Shawn.

So Mark tried a green jalafuego today and like the description he said it was a super hot jalapeno. Very good. Minimal seeds with a crunchy flesh.

My peppers especially the M are getting edema I guess. Wet leaves underneath that are a little swelled. How do I fix that? THese are starting to wilt a little I raised the lights and there is air flow. Keeping the house at a steady temp too.

I always remove the leaves that are overlapping - especially leaves that are covered by other ones. If they're not getting light, they're not doing much to help the plant anyway.
