Thanks Len, will check this out. Jonno, you might have something there too;
they are planted on flat ground, very healthy but drainage might be a
probem.

g'day potaroo,

could it be fruit fly?

have you opened up 1 of the affected fruit to see if there is f/f
larva in there?

A fix would be to create a raised bed for them, unless as Len wrote its

But the peppers may be a bit hot for them.
