Following, two of my Habs look like this and no matter what I give them they don’t change.

It could just be the chlorine or chloramine in the water, if you use tap water on your plants, as this is a common cause of yellowing leaves on an otherwise healthy plant.
Rain water is best, followed by distilled or boiled, or a drop of water conditioner, as used in fish tanks, works well to soften and remove chlorine from water.
You could also try watering with Epsom salts – 1 tablespoon mixed well into 1 gallon of water once or twice a month works well, or as a foliar spray for leaves.

Are you giving regular nutrients? Peppers are heavy feeders, I know if I don’t fertilize for a little too long my plants start looking more yellow than green.

Does your soil tend to stay really moist? In my experience, pale green is due to lack of nitrogen.
