Got home from work today with my plants looking like this.. new growth feels soft dry and crispy.... I watered them last night. Yes it was warm today but nothing out of the ordinary. All my other plants are fine, same soil and feeding schedule. I noticed these black things on my plant stems a few weeks ago, pulled them off but maybe they have something to do with it, could it be root bound?? Maybe heat stress cause the plant is just getting into flowering now and maybe I need to water twice a day if it’s warm instead of once??

Do you have neighbors? Because that looks like pesticide damage. Are there fields or something near by that people were applying pesticides, even within a couple mile radius? Because it could be volatilization which is when pesticide is sprayed when it is cool i.e. in the morning, then it warms up and that pesticide evaporates and is carried away from the application site to as far away as several miles.
 
Not sure of your soil situation.
Planted in ground or pots or really any relevant info so Im just winging it.

Is it possible the pots are in hard light and the roots are hot as hell.

Do you know what SCALE is ...?
 
If you do end up having root bound issues, try a breathable pot next time like smart or airpot, or preferably make your own! With the roots air trimming they won't get rootbound just bushier and bushier...

YES I DO, lol. I can see the pics but it also looks like damage from pesticide spray coupled with scale. They look burnt in my opinion and I'm no expert on scale damge. If scale damage looks like the OP picture then cool beans.

PS, google scale damage and you won't see burnt ass leaves. So again dude why?
 
Ughhh fuck I don’t know what’s going on.. I sprayed heaps of insecticide on then weeks ago.. I sprayed and rinsed with a hose a couple days after the..

By heaps what do you mean?
Was it systemic, did you dose it correctly etc...

You have to take this aspect seriously.
You, your plant and anyone else sampling are counting on you.
