So this morning I noticed that one out of my 8 or so red baby bells on 2 baby bells in the same 5 gallon bucket had a "rotten" looking spot, figure it might be blossom end rot. Just now I noticed two spots of what looks like while Mycelium aka mold.
And I went ahead nad "ripped" those pieces of soil out just now, and noticed a few SUPER TINY black bugs, almost microscopic from under where the mold was....
I inspect my plants daily, only have two 5 gallon buckets, one with the 2 red baby bells I'm talking about, one with a Jalapeno plant, and I also have a 45 gallon tote with 2 water melon plants, all grown on a 3rd floor balcony.
Any idea what this is? Any course of action? If I can fix it, I'm glad I caught it early.....
