Hello everyone, newbie gardener here!!
The scotch bonnet plant you see in the attached pictures was store bought and transplanted into a pot on June 1st. We have noticed in the last few days it has begun to turn slightly yellow on certain leaves and has some minor tears/holes in the top leaves primarily. We put fertilizer spikes in the soil with it a day or two after transplanting (I believe the fertilizer sticks were 10-10-10).
Just looking for any tips/tricks for this plant as this is me and my girlfriends first year gardening and as such are looking for any information some more seasoned gardeners would be willing to share! One major question we had for this plant especially is do we need to do any trimming/pruning and if so when/how? We live in zone 4b if that helps (Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada).
Any information is greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Scott
