I have a little bit of experience growing peppers, but am no where near knowledgable. Over the past few days it has rained a lot, and I've noticed small brown spots on the leaves and, overall, the plant drooping and the leaves curling. Help is much appreciated.

Looks like my plants that I put in soil that was too hot....nutrient wise
No idea mine was neither like I said too nutrient rich soil for my issue and not a lack of anything or bacterial.
Condition of the habanero is slowly deteriorating
Seems like the insects/disease has spread to the tobasco pepper next to it. Wondering if I should pull these out to prevent it spreading any further, because I have no clue what to do.

Personally I would transplant it into a pot, taking only a roughly 6" diameter chunk of soil with it into a larger pot with added, well draining fresh soil, and give it a dose of nitrogen.
That way you can move it to where it doesn't get so much water and when you water you can better keep it from splashing up from the soil like the rain did.
