White film on bottoms of pepper leaves?

Longboat Key, FL(Zone 9b)

Hi everyone and happy holidays to you all.

Just hoping someone can help me figure out what I have growing on my piquant pepper plant leaves. The plant is about 8 months old, grown from seed and nearly 6 feet tall with decent foliage. It is not flowering however, and today I discovered white stuff on the bottoms of the leaves near the bottom of the plant.

I pulled off a leaf and laid it in my sink. I sprayed the white film with Dawn Platinum foam soap and let it sit for a while then rinsed it. Second picture shows black specs after soap was rinsed off.

I thank you all. Happy holidays!! =)
