    I have no idea what is going on, but this is happening to more and more pepper plants each day. They are fine one day, then the next they are wilted, (yet the ones next to them are not so I don't think it's lack of water). Then the leaves fall off and the plant dies. Often times the plant has fruit that survives longer than the leaves.

    Any ideas?

    I water each day. About a month ago I put in Epsom salts. There is no rhyme or reason as to which plant will be next, it's going thorough all of the raised beds randomly.

    I do have a small ant problem. Could they be doing this?
