whats your ph? how often and how much have you fed? it appears to be a nute lockout (due to ph)problem to me. Flush your soil. salts from fertilizers build up over time and will cause this as well.

thank you both very much.

pureblood:i deff have heat and humidity problems..been tryin to figure out ways,just havent came up with something solid.
Darkdestruction:tap water ph is like 7.0 (ph tester not electronic,PLUS im colorblind)so i have my mom help me out :) then after putting jacks classics nutes,superthrive and calmag..its 6.5 i do 1/8 of vegi and 1/16 of flowering nutes to balance something..haha brother explained to me,forgot..
i feed them like every other day every two days,kinda wait until soil comes off sides and pots are light.i did half strength for a bit and also feed water water feed water water feed... .....i feed them like a lil over 2 cups each now ive done 4 cups each.(i make a half gal) only twice i fed them 4 cups.
I HAVE FLUSHED pineapple once,a few weeks ago..havent done it to the headband yet and i should since its starting to show signs like pineapple....DO U THINK its from rootbound...ther potted pretty damn low in the pots..not goin to lie,lol.

KEEP IN TOUCH AND THANX AGAIN!

I don't know what's wrong with it but if you suspect it being root bound, then simply pop the plant from the pot and check it.
