Been two days and plants seem fine after treatment.Have new leaf growth.Does not look to be anymore damage.Rain expected today and through Tuesday.Peppers are growing larger each day with a lot of blooms.So in the future leave out the alcohol?I have not used anything on my plants in years,I have been very lucky in the past with very few problems with bugs.Last year we had stink beetles but did not see any damage to my plants.This year with all the rain last month,I lost some plants to cutworms which is a first for me.I have wrapped newspaper around my plants in the past and even used nothing at all some years and had no problem.This year with the wet spring, cutworms and leaf hole damage to all my pepper plants.The 85 to 90 degree days and nights in the 70's this past week have really helpd my garden.I made a alfalfa tea mix three weeks ago and watered my pants with that,that may have helped get things moving with the warmer weather.Every year brings new challenges
