What has the weather been like for you?
Looks like they are reacting to high heat.
Water more during hot days and throw some mulch around the base of the plant to keep them from drying out.

^^^Agreed. Mulch is always a good thing. I think also your problem might be weather related. I'm seeing a lot of ugly peppers for some reason.

Its tha HEAT!!!I have the same problems.Your supposed to start your veggies early to beat the heat when there young.Larger plants with deeper root can easily handle 100+ but smaller plants will struggle/die.Feel the soil......I bet its hot as hell,mine is.Mulch around the base is good idea-the outdoorsman.Water during peak hot hours.

I have a habanero that looks like that.
It was planted 2 weeks later than the other peppers when the weather got wet and hot.
Some low nitrogen mulch and maybe a little shade would be a good idea.

I'd suggest a good hit of potash too mate, they'll pick back up. Also contrary to beliefs, depending on how hot the chillis are, some prefer the stinking hot heat to reach full potential. As long as they are regularly watered and given nutrients they will thrive in it
