Hello Filan.
Overwatering or overfeeding can cause leaf yellowing in the two plants you mentioned.
Also watering with limey (hard) tap water can in some cases cause yellowing.
It is best to use rain water from a water butt.

A pic of the plants in question and the soil they sit in would give me more clues.

Could be Magnesium deficiency. Very common with tomatoes.

Need to see a picture of the leaves
