[CH] Need more input

Greetings fellow Chileheads,
A couple of questions for y'all. The chile plants that I have growing at
my mother's house have grown quite large, but I am finding that there are
two problems with the chiles themselves. First, the Red Hot Peppers
(looking like New Mex's) are universally rotting near the tips of each
chile. Not *at* the tip, but just back from it. Why? Any ideas? Bueller,
Bueller?
The other problem is that all the chiles, jalapenos, cayenne, habaneros
and the above mentioned New Mex-types are all about 1/2 their normal size.
I actually had one jalapeno that ripened to bright red and was only about 1
inch long (2.54 cm for those of you who are Imperial measurement
challenged). Again I ask. Why?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
