Probably aphid poop... looks like that may be the culprits on the stem there... blast em off with a spray from the hose and keep an eye to make sure they dont get out of control... I would not resort to any insectisides yet, just keep an eye on their population and keep spraying them off the plants as you see them.

loo Here are my perfect pepper plants. A the black spot appeared overnight. I think it may have been the heavy rains. Today, I am going to drain off any extra water that maybe in my pots.

Are they near the house where a reflection could hit the leaves and magnify a burning sun ray? I would maybe keep them in the shade but introduce them to sun little by little.

looks like mold to me....though im no pro.... if that is the case though you can get a spray for it that should clear it up in a week or two you can always take a leaf sample or such in to your local nursery or gardening store and im pretty sure theyd be able to help you figure it out...be weary though they might just try to sell you something to sell you something
