Hot pepper plant leaves yellowing

Lowlander · May 12, 2013

I have had these super hots under T5 grow lights for several months. They are in 3" peat cups and wating to go out into the garden. Recently they have started to get yellowing of the larger/lower leaves and several of the leaves have fallen off.

What causes this?? mineral deficiency? too much water?? root bound??

I have a lot of work in getting these germinated and healthy sized,...so I don't want to lose any of them.
