Only if you solve the problem causing the issue in the first place.
Personally I don't think it's heat related. Just look at how the damage is occurring, the newest growth is impacted the worst, leaving other growth in a relatively similar proximity isn't burned.
The plant is withering, and completely dying at a quick rate. Youngest growth impacted first and worst, the problem is expanding from these areas out. This is typical with a disease or fungal infection.
If your light height is good, I'd doubt it's from atmospheric temperature. People grow outside all the time, I even pop seeds on my porch in the summer time, 100+F and they don't burn up unless the sun blasts them directly. In the shade they're fine.
Look at it this way, are all the plants outside dying and burning to a crisp? If so then I suppose maybe in your climate this is normal. If not, it's probably not the cause of your plant inside dying.

Dummy talk.

I'm trying to help him assess his situation.

His highs were 113 at one point.
His normal temp is 75~.

Pretty sure high heat played a part. He also mentions it in the OP.

I speak from experience. shut yo dumbass up mech and take notes.

High heat did not cause the damage shown in the pictures!

Unless a light is too close, high heat will not selectively destroy new growth while leaving nearby leaves healthy green.

Plants overheated. VPD was thrown off with a temp shock from 75f to 113f.
Plants weren't ready for that stress.

Google "heat stressed plants"

It starts from the top and goes down.

Compare.

I do take notes. I'm here doing research. Just like him. He is he doesn't need your verbal abuse. Look up the definition of FORUM. Chill. We're all brothers in grow here. You have good input, just harsh.

Just for all who cares! The Plants are very healthy and close to flower, after some TLC I appreciate all who tried to help me , I'll most likely post a harvest report when they're done if anybody is interested, I'm putting it down to heat stress because I've literally changed nothing apart from temps, this is a great reminder of why temperature control is so important!, happy growing!
