Hello, yesterday I found aphids on my peppers. I didn't see them before and I look at peppers all the time. I guess I didn't look close enough under the leaves, because there are a lot of them...even something like eggs. It is interesting that aphids liked more yellow and red peppers and didn't infest orange peppers. May be they didn't have enough time...I sprayed all my plants with Schultz Spray. Today I still could find some of the aphids alive, but most of them dead. Not long before that I saw that some of the yellow peppers have strange leave discoloration, yellowish spots. My friend said that it is Cucumber Mosaic Virus. Please, let me know if it is Cucumber Mosaic Virus or any other desease. Thank you in advance Lara P.S. The white stuff on the leaves is fungicide, it came off on some places. The yellow spots in real life are more bright and visible, than on the photos.
Hi Lara, Here is a link that explains about the mosaic virus: What is Mosaic Virus It doesn't mention a 'jumping' of the virus from one species to another, however, there is info on a pepper variety here: Sweet Pepper Diseases Anne
