Thank you for the reply. ProMix. 10 years old though.
Some rain water does get into it. But not that much. Maybe during the spring/winter while it was outside. The cover was not tight.

I have sprayed the plants with a Plant Doctor Fungicide as it states it has curative properties. And added some into reservoir.

So far the only stem at the soil line is affected. No damage on leaves. I cut couple of the peppers above the damage and put them into clean ProMix. Maybe it will take.

Thank you again. Very frustrated. 3 boxes show the damage.

BioSafe (5.34% Hydrogen Peroxide, 1.36% Peroxyacetic Acid) stated it is curative too.
