Lift your pot up, yes i know it will be difficult, tilt it or something, looking at picture 1 it looks like the pot isnt big enough, if you see roots growing out of the drainage holes it could be a root bound problem, i had this earlier in my grow.

Hippy
 
think i see white flyes-spots in second pic
 
HI hippy,no it isnt rootbound the pots are big 40ltr ,and there are no roots at the bottom, the white spots are from when i sprayed them one evening with water and it marked the leaves, The problem has been going on for 6-8 weeks they have been fushed regularly,but i just cannot find the problem.
 
They are on a rooftop terrace the temp is about 80-90 degrees but i have up there shade which i move the plants to when i see they are suffering from heat,i painted the pots white as they were black and i did have a prob with heat,but i cant see that being the prob.i have 9 plants up there and it is 3 thats giving me problems ,so??i think it must be some sort of def but i cant work it out
