Not sure what the issue is, but it just started doing this. i water them every 3 days and skip a day if it rains.

Looks like heat to me and why every three days?
because im trying to keep it as natural as possible and thats how often it rains here in the northeast where im at. but they are under lattice so they dont get 12 hours of direct sun so when it does rain, it doesnt go in the pots directly so i water them with mister to amount of rainfall we had

Unfortunately the temp is too high.

Do the leaf edges feel dry/brittle?

Mist them regularly and feed with a good stress reliever after the heatwave is over.

Should be back in no time.

yes the leaves feel really dry, but there is nothing i can do about the heat. so i just have to wait untill it is over? and what is a good stress reliever

Rhizatonic is in the first instance a root enhancer, but works well as a stress reliever too
bringing them inside at night to let them cool down wouldnt help would it? since its so hot during the day. only because this is going to be a hot summer and they are already in the shade. i dont want them to die

i think as long as u have good air flow, them temps won't be too bad on a temporary basis.

high 80's works ok for me as long as you provide enough ventilation & assuming you are outside....i think you'll be fine!
