Today I suddenly noticed these bumps on top of my new growth on my two jalapeños. It’s only on the topside of the leaves. I grow my plants in cocos+perlite 70/30, topwater them every other / 2 days with run off, with light canna coco A+B and calmag. Fan is on several hours every day, though I believe I forgot to turn it on yesterday. Only the jalapeños are showing this, other chilli’s are okay.
Are they still okay, what’s best to do next? I will pot them up tomorrow.

On mine it showed up first as crystals on the bottom of the leaves right along the sides of the leaf veins. Still maybe edema, not sure. Mine are in a grow tent so it got quite humid in there even with circulation fan bc i dont have a vent fan so i started leaving the door open and that helped drop the humidity.
I’ve never grown in coco/perlite mix so I’m guessing it drains really well because that watering frequency for dirt is a bit much for indoor plants from what I’ve observed. Maybe that doesnt apply here for this medium.
Even though it helped my plants a lot leaving the door open, they still have the crystals on the bottom of some plants, but the leaves aren’t quite as messed up looking as they used to be.
