I live in plant zone 4b, just put my pepperinos outside a few weeks ago. I try to water them in the mornings, and use a liquid nitrogen fertilizer. The well water has iron and manganese in it. They get direct sun for most of the day
Anything I should be doing differently? I’m not sure what the spottiness on the jalapenos is, and I’m not sure if the Habaneros look healthy or not

They both look a little too yellow and curly imo.
How often are you fertilizing?

Could be too much heat or sun and the plants are adjusting. I’m in 7b and when we take our plants outside in May to harden we have to be careful not to give them too much sun too quickly or they can get stunted and damaged new growth. It doesn’t look like they are getting damaged but might be getting a little overwhelmed. I have seen some people in lower zones put a thin white cloth that the sun cans still get through as a shader to help keep the plants cooler

The leaves are „hiding“ from sun amounts they‘re not used to. Mine looked like this for 1-2 weeks after planting them outside. They‘re perfectly fine now though
