Quite new to growing, has anyone had this happen before? My other plant is thriving in the same setup, same soil all organic. They're in 20L soil pots in holes with the bottom cut off sitting on top of about 10-20L soil. Both have mulch to retain moisture. This plant though in particular has had problems from the start of transplating with bit of yellowing of the leaves and couple of brown spots but they are dying off now and the new growth is looking alot healthier besides this wilting. Any idea to what the cause is?

Don't mind the dirt from the rain

Get your magnifier out and get a good look at the underside of the infected leaves. It may be caused by an insect. Also, friend keep the mulch off the plant stem so it won't damage it from decomposing. You can mulch your plants without touching the plant stem. Your plant is looking good now so be patient and keep us posted.

Ah I didnt know that, I'll go ahead and do that right now with the mulch.
Also don't have a magnifier, I'll have to grab one asap. I'll try do a bit more of a closer inspection in the meantime, hands and knees time lol Cheers!

1. Because it's outdoors, there are also a lot of bugs.

That's the reason for the curled leaf.
In this early stage of vegging, a piece of clove near the bottom of the plant deters a lot of insects, because it contains eugenol, which is particularly effective against mites.

2. Potassium lockout or deficiency

The leaf is stunted and the margins are affected. It has been overcome because the later leaves overgrew it.

You should feed them some fermentation to make more of the organic nutrients in the soil available.

And spray down the plants to hose off the dirt and insects.
