The brown spots with yellow fringes on the leaves makes me suspect something bacterial. I've seen peppers get lesions and go soft on the same type of infected plants ... i'm well acquainted unfortunately.

Personally i'd give it a shot of copper spray to prevent whatever it is from spreading. You can spray copper every week, and directly after rainstorms. But after a 3 or 4 weeks you should be good to go for the rest of the season, no need to spray all season long and get all that excess copper in your dirt.

Check the link below for an example, there's a concentrate version which would need a sprayer, and a ready to use version.

Thanks, I'll give it a go. :-)

Keep an eye out for stink bugs. They did damage to my plants that was similar to that last year. They actually eat the outer skin of the peppers. Good Luck!

The spots on the leaves look look like BLS. Copper spray should knock that out.

I have noticed plants that are lacking NPK are more prone to BLS. Feed that baby some cal mag and blood meal:)
