Pale leaves on Jalapeño

Hey all,

After transplant this year, I saw a significant level of leaf color lost in most of my plants. I am planting 5 Jalapeño, 5 Serrano, 3 Caribbean Red Habanero, 1 Cayenne, 1 Aji Amarillo, and 3 Naga Jolokia. All of my transplants are slowly getting their green back, except for my Jalapeño plants. They seem to have lost the most color and aren't getting it back. They are still upright and healthy looking otherwise. I had all of my seedlings in a cold frame that I used to harden them off by gradually leaving it open for longer periods of time until I just left the top off of it for a couple of days immediately before transplant. Either way, all of my other plants are recovering swimmingly.

Anybody have any ideas on what I can do to get them back to a healthy green? I can take some pictures tonight when I get home if that would help.

I fertilized the beds with Jobes Organic Vegetable and Tomato Granular Fertilizer prior to transplant. Here's a link.
