Calfornia Wonder Bell Pepper issues...

I have four california wonder bell pepper plants that have leaves turning yellow and are now dropping them all. On one plant, ALL the lower branches/leaves have fallen. All that's left is one small bunch of green leaves up top. So, whats up? I have about 60 other plants that are doing JUST fine in that garden, including some in the same row as the bells. I have been OCD about making sure everything is going well.

Just thought I'd throw this in there. This is my first ever garden, so I don't think I'm doing half bad!

Very nice garden! I'm not sure on the pepper problem. Check for insect pests. What's the weather been like?

Nice garden picture! I too am experiencing the same on my bell peppers. It has been cool and below average temps here in the past but in the last week or so we have now gone into hotter temps.

Is it because of the up and down temps.?
