Leaf problem

Hey guys,

It's been a while since updating my glog, unfortunately I've been too busy to take pics etc., but I now need your pepper brilliance to help identify an issue my plants are experiencing. The leaves of some plants have started to die at the points, after which they yellow and fall off. One plant almost has no old leaves anymore. I'm pretty sure it's not a nutrient thing because there are some younger ones that are starting to have the same problem.

wet wilt, perhaps? What's your watering schedule like?

If not. What ferts, etc, are you using? Slow release? Any pests? Amy mildew?

Also, is potato ;)

Thanks for replying! I water when I feel the pots are significantely lighter when lifting them up. Saturated soil feels a lot heavier. I water at the bottom.

I haven't used any ferts yet, because they had some compost added. Going to start using next time I water. It's a general liquid fert, not especially for peppers.

I've had some aphids and whiteflies but I'm like a hawk with them. I spot them when I can still count them on two hands. I pinch them and spray away the eggs. If they are too stuck I remove the leaf.

Potato, potato. It's all the same.
 
It's too hard to see anything in that pic, but you've definitely had some whitefly on those leaves.  But aside from that, you're gonna need better pictures, for better answers...
 
can we please see the whole plant?

like others have said... its hard to say anyuthing about a particular leaf. you can have 1 fucked up leaf on an otherwise healthy plant... it happens all the time, it just takes one bug, or one random deformity etc.
 
Thanks for the replies! Here are some more pictures. If it still needs more detail I can see if I can loan a real camera.

The leaves from the earlier picture came from the plant on the first pic here:
