  Hi all
  
  Was wondering if anyone could help me with growing bell peppers , ive succesfully grown them from seed in my green house and then slowly introduced them outdoors before planting in the garden , but since then the leaves seem to be splitting (even the new leaves )and some have holes in them could this be a disease of some sort ?? , i have been using a tomato plant feed which i was told would be suitable to use but im not so sure now ?

  1) Leaf splitting!
  
  Has it been windy in your area of late ?
  
  If it has been then the splitting has possibly been caused by this.
  
  2) holes in leaves!
  
  This could be slugs,snails or flea beetle!
  
  3) feeding?
  
  I would say you are far to early with this task!
  
  Treat your peppers like tomatoes - commence feeding when the fruit sets!
  
  The other thing is; Pepers are a little tender and won' t be taking kindly to the cold nights we have had recently.
