Jalapeno Issue

Hello. I have a relatively new jalapeno plant (had it since about June of this year) that is in a 18" pot on my balcony.

It has produced many peppers (I am amazed at how fast it has grown), but recently the leaves have been getting discolored and I am not sure what is causing the problem.

The plant gets between 8 and 10 hours of direct sunlight a day as the balcony is south-facing. I water it every other day or so--now that the days are getting a little cooler it's more like every 3rd day.

Do the patterns on the leaves mean anything to anyone? Any ideas about what is going wrong?
