Leaves getting a strange shape

13 years ago

Hello there!

Yesterday I was outside looking at my peppers and I found out that some leaves are developing a strange shape; first time -long time ago- I saw one strange leaf in my Trinidad Scorpio Moruga then it fell but didn't spread to any other leaf.

I noticed that my Jalapeno pepper are starting to develop the same strange leaf, but the plant is getting more than one strange leaf.

I have attached a picture, does any one know what it is?
Could it be overwatering or lack of water?

NOTE: Don't look at the two little holes, I made them by accident after pruning the leaf.

Here is the background info:

*I translated my containers pepper from indoors to outdoor on June 1st. But I started to hardening off since May 15.
*I put them in a plastic mini greenhouse to get more warm, so during sunny days I can get 86 degrees, and at nights I get 65 degrees.
*Early in the morning I unzip the plastic door to avoid killing high temperatures to my plants and to avoid a lot of humidity.
*In the afternoon I zip it again to avoid cold.
*My water frequency is every wednesday and saturday, 1 liter (4 cups) of water to each container.
*Each container is around 6 liters or 1.6 gallons of soil.
