Hi, I've had a beautiful chili plant which has been doing great for the last 5 years at least. This year we harvested lots of chilies but now they leaves are sort of wilting, facing downwards, pale and although we still get lots of chilies they are very small in size. Can you please help? I live in the Hunter Region, NSW. Funny thing I have another chili plant which is only a metre away and it looks fine.
