Soap spray should be SOAP, not detergent. Dawn is a detergent which can be harmful to plants. Try Ivory bar soap shaved and dissolved in warm water or Ivory liquid hand soap next time. The proportion to use is about 1 tablespoon soap to a gallon of water. Don't soak the plant but spray the bugs.

Oh, so you're saying that I may be harming the plants by trying to help them. lol. That would be me. I thought it might be some kind of wilt at first. Fusarium? All of my peppers, brussel sprouts, and beans seem to be unaffected.

Junkie, you are certainly not the first with good intentions to cause problems. I can personally attest to that!!

If you could post good, close-up pictures of the leaves, it might help. Long distance diagnosis is difficult but sometimes we can tell by looking. If not, take samples to your local cooperative extension and they can tell you what's going on. Free service (that you've paid for with your taxes! LOL)
