Woah it grew that much in 3 days??? It's amazing haha and the torta looks so good and fresh. I never had one in a long time cos I don't know how to cook it lol.
I think those white ones are mealybugs. I had peppers before and I would see them there. From my research, the ladybugs eat them but I'm not really sure how bad they are for the plant or for us. It's a strong indicator I guess that the plant is healthy and has no pesticides. :D
