Leaf browning on edges of the leaves of a pepper plant is usually due to inconsistent watering. Either over or under-watering or swings between both. Inconsistent watering leads to nutrient deficiencies because your plants can’t absorb and utilize nutrients efficiently. It can also cause them to be more susceptible to pests and diseases.
You can also see another sign in your photo…zoomed in and circled. This inconsistent watering issue is a fairly recent issue. You can see it especially in the new leaves. They aren’t flat like your older leaves. They are kind of wavy. That is the biggest sign of a recent watering issue. Wavy, discolored, crispy or misshapen leaves is usually the first symptom we notice. I’ll attach a video in a reply post that you may find helpful about watering. Can’t post both a link and a photo in the same post.
