Hello all.
A question on infection.
I am familiar with different methods of Piper propagation. We cant use seeds. Now we are sticking with layering but we keep getting a crippling percent of black rot. Even on potted plants that i root onto other pots (nodes already have root buds), they start to rot as well...im a bit stuck on why and how to fix it. Would really appreciate some help if anyone has any experience :)

Use a copper spray, the problem is bacterial rot.

I too, have had some issues with my black pepper which sound the same.
I took a photo, is this similar to what you are seeing?

I have had the fine coming up on a year now,
I have lost multiple feet from my vines, and lots of leaves.
The problem still seems to be lingering and
I am worried that I might lose some of the new growth to it again in the future.

Great thank you!
That pic looks different than mine. Mine is always stem rot that works up and eventually out tothe leabes.
Will try the copper. Cheer :)
