Jack,

There is another problem, It could be soil pH,
Some of us found our Red Savies, and Choc Habs were off color because the
soil pH was low. Like from 6.5 to 6.2,  Not very much.

   When the soil pH is too low or to high then plants can not absorb some of
the chemicals that they need for proper fruit development.

  Also cat sh-t, within 2 feet of the plant can cause deformed fruits. The
pH of cat is 4.5, too acidic for the plants. SOHK found some with a pH
meter.
Suppose one could use their nose for this job.

If interested in soil pH drop a note, I have a pH chart. about 180K that you
can print out.

OR

You can take a look at a small one on the following site, The  article is on
pasture land, but the pH chart also applies to chiles.
