Kinda hard to tell but it looks like they may be overwatered.....
Wait a few days to water and see if things perk up...
If not,then it is probably low ph or over fertilization

if its showing burn without the addition of nutrients,then the ph is out of range,showing deficiencies
Or it needs to be fed
Whatever route you choose to take will not be immediate,so patience will have to be exercised

I'm not telling you to nute your plant....I am only stating some things based by what you say
Get your ph in check and go from there.....
A little lime will probably help you out...

You can top dress a little lime on the soil
a tad of baking soda in water

Another thing that you can try is, if there is a hydroponics store around you that carries bottles of acid(ph) solution that you can add to the watering water before you water to raise the ph of the soil. Now I'm not sure if this will work, just an idea.

i got some crayola chalk...ground it into soil and water with a chalk water solution and tested the water And it seemed high so my fingers are crossed. the only thing i was worried about was the chalk being gypsum but i used a little on just one plant so ill see if she improves. is the streightening of the leaves pretty immediate or will it take a few days for me to even notice if its working
