disease-pests leaf question

[HotPeppersFlyFishing]

Ok as newbie I have to ask this. Is it common for chile plants (as the get bigger and taller) to drop their lower most leaves as they grow?? all my plants are getting bigger/bushier/taller but some drop the lower set. AM I being paranoid??
Thanks for any info

Yes it's very normal for them to drop their lower leaves.

Yep, leaves come and they go.

As long as it is not more than say 1/3 of the existing leaves that fall it is OK.
