    Look underneath the leaves and discover a family of aphids!

        Some of my peppers are getting wrinkly too......I've hunted underneath but any aphids must be running and hiding when they see me coming cos there's diddly squat to be seen

            I have had a really bad time with all my peppers and chillies looking like this (and a lot worse) and I would have said no aphids, too. However, I have been spraying with weak soap solution weekly and "watering under the leaves" with a rose on the end of a hose pipe and many of the plants seem to be growing out of it. Others have got two weeks left before I rip them out as just not improving.

            So invisible aphids or something spookier and the soap just makes me feel like I'm doing something!

              It's only my habaneros that look like that and I can't see any infestation, so hoping they grow out of it.
