I had high hopes for my first bell pepper that started to grow a few weeks ago. But earlier this week, I noticed that it seemed to have stopped growing. It is only about 2 inches wide, approximately half of the expected size, and it never changed from green to red. This afternoon I took a closer look and found these bruises at the bottom.
I don't know caused it to go from healthy to unhealthy in a seemingly short amount of time. Over/under watering? Lack of nutrients? Too much direct sun? I'm hoping that the other two currently growing don't suffer the same fate.
If anybody has had success with peppers, I'd be happy to have any advice.
