I would say your soil quality has probably played a part, also when outside you're really at the mercy of the elements - rain and temperature. I've grown a bunch of tomatillos in pots this year and ran out of tomato compost so mixed up some normal potting compost with topsoil and the plants in the less rich mix are rubbish in comparison.

Have two tomatoes in the same box planter. Planted them late and soil was/is bit shit (found cigarette butts in in the soil when I was planting stuff) but nonetheless they flowered and are producing fruit. The one on the left however stopped putting up new leafs after it produced fruit and I've been watering and feeding them equally. Any ideas as to why? Just a bad part in the soil / not as strong of a plant?
I also had some bird?/rodent? come up and remove my pepper plant right after I had I planted it, so growing here has been an experience thus far! This is on the second floor for reference
