This red cayenne pepper plant is full of green not yet ripned chilis. However the leaves look pale, a mix of lime and darker green? I have it in ffof soil. I feed occaisionally with 1/2 strength nutrient water and a little cal-mag. Any suggestions? Do I need more nitrogen?

looks a bit like nitrogen/sulphur def.....try a 3/4 strength seaweed based feed for nitrogen if possible but when the leaves look like they are back to normal just take care not to keep giving them to much nitrogen you could prob half the strength or just space apart the feedings from once a week to two
 
use dynagro foilage pro next time..worked awesomely with my carolina reaper,cayennes,penis peppers,santafe grandes REALLY produced..not a sign of deficiencies in one till it got colder..
 
It could also be over watering. I've had peppers do that to me when the weather changes, too.
If the soil is wet let it dry out completely before your next watering.
It looks like a lot of plant for the size of container. Give it some more Nitrogen as well.
 
I'll add one more for the possible over watering. I was giving my peppers too much water and they were fading. Once I stepped back and let the fabric pots dry out between waterings, they took off again.
