No sunburn, looks like edema to me. Look underside the leaves and if you notice crystal like white stuff, it is pretty a sure thing that it is edema.
 
 
Edema:
 
This is a condition caused by a chili plant taking on more water through its root system that it can use in growth or transpire through its leaves.
 
It causes strange-looking crystalline growths on leaves. In itself, edema causes little harm but is symptomatic of other problems.
 
So in short it is mostly caused by overwatering the chili.

And I thought I might be under watering I don’t water often but thinking about it it’s possible that when I do water I’m giving them too much water thanks for the tip [emoji6]

High humidity and poor circulation can cause this as well, I had this a while back stuck a fan on them and it cleared up.

I have a fan on them humidity is usually in the 30’s and 40’s

Sure looks like Edema, and with that much top growth in that little styro cup, your little baby is screaming for a bigger container.
