I believe that every pepper in my garden is now well infected with Bacterial Leaf Spot and some are in the death throws from it. I have never had a pepper plant get better after getting infected. Sometimes if the weather is dry and cool they will hang on a long time but with all this rain we have been having it is really sad to see how fast they are going downhill.
I already removed the shade cloth in time for three days of steady rain. I went out this morning and they looked like death warmed over. I can't really complain too much since I have had a bumper crop of peppers this year and it had to come to an end one day and that day looks like it is fast approaching. Oh well it is time to get ready for fall gardening anyway.
