Hello Master Gardener, I belive I have identified the problem with my peppers this year as Bacterial leaf spot. I have grown peppers for years successfully and was so sad to have them fail to thrive right from the beginning of the season. I know from my own research this can be caused by infected seeds or dirt. We bought dirt for our raised beds (from a reputable landscaping company in Saint Paul) and were concerned from the start. We ended up replacing most of our peppers with new seedlings and digging out the dirt and adding new bagged compost. What a pain. Anyway, our peppers grew and made some peppers but the leaves continue to yellow and fall off and I fear they are on the way out altogether. My question for you (sorry so long winded!) is can we eat the peppers on the infected plants? We have a dozen jalapeño plants and they each have 4-5 peppers that look fine. Thank you in advance.
