I cant figure out whats doing it. I havent seen any bugs, but it sure looks like something is eating it. At first I thought it was just a fungus because of how the tips were browning and what not. So i tried a fungus product from Garden Safe. Then i noticed it looked like something was eating it so I tried a pest killer by Garden Safe. After starting the pest killer it seemed to get worse, so Ive stopped using that. The plant is a Caribbean Red Hot pepper. All the other plants around it seem to be doing fine.

whats the point of using organic solutions.. if you just willy nilly keep drenching the poor plant repeatedly ..

its pollution.. if you apply a cure .. TO AN UNIDENTIFIED PROBLEM...

i dont care if its organic pollution.. or chemical pollution ..

what is the plant.. why is it potted.. when was it last re-potted .... and how long did it dry out for .. was it properly hardened off before being put in sun.. and where are you

This image shows a hole made quite a while ago -- the cut edges have browned. So whoever did it is long gone. (It's on the same plant that has crinkled leaves.)

Hey, holes happen! A few aren't a problem. Many might be a problem.
