Can't identify that mould? Got a great tip for keeping slugs at bay? Suggestions for organic weed control? Post them here...

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone has any idea what might be wrong with my peppers / chillis.

They are planted in the polytunnel border. Some of the leaves are kind of crinkled (which I think might be aphids) and the leaves have started to yellow in the past few days.

I've not used any chemical treatments etc. for the aphids, just put in some companion plants and started spraying them with water twice a day. I've not seen aphids on them since I started doing that.

The picture above is a chilli.

Also, they seem to be stunted in their growth.

Any ideas?

Thanks
