it doesn't look like heat stress.
Just a heads up about ur first pic. Do not pot two plants in 1 pot. You will soon realize this was a mistake however when you have realized it will be too late. I am giving you the heads up now before you have to break your roots apart causing alot of damage.

Have you checked the soil run off ph?

The soil ph is 6.7 in this pot so the soil is fine , and as far as two plants in on pot I'm well aware of the consequences opf having two plants in on pot. However these plants are not getting transplanted the only time there getting moved is when I sex them and/or harvest. Here are some more pics.....

you are watering way too fast by the way
What makes you say that?? I wait till the soil is almost completely dry. I have a moisture tester. Also sometimes I don't even water I let the rain do the work.
The reason they're so slow is that they're sitting in water. Next time, start them in MUCH smaller containers and transplant them as they grow. Having a huge container of soggy soil for a small plant is a sure fire way to stunt growth.

i'd also like to ask something about heat. If there's 30 degrees celcius outside then what's the temperature in greenhouse ca? Close to 40?.. will the plants survive the temperature?

Greetings.
Some interesting observations in this thread and a stellar collective effort. If I may, here are my observations:
The symptoms expressed are the result of the combination of overwatering (and its ramifications) and the plants' attempted acclimatization to direct sunlight (they were exposed too quickly, to too high an intensity).
(See link A below).
Recommended is a steady/slow watering until soil drench and the appropriate runoff is achieved.
(See link B below).
Sincerely,
Charles.

This is derivative of overwatering, especially in soil.
An experienced eye can discern this from the evidence of the accumulation of perlite on the medium's surface. This accumulation indicates the 'pooling effect'. Where the rate of water poured into the container, is greater than the rate of diffusion into the medium (and subsequently drainage out of the medium). The 'flushing' of perlite from the soil, coupled with already wet conditions, creates a low oxygen environment where plant growth is stunted.

As usual, MTF-Sandman cuts right to the core issue and lends the type of advice that only experience can own.

The problem is the pots are too big for them right now...a plants root system will end up just following the edges of the pot leaving a large unused soil pocket in the center of the pot. If you started off in say 3 or 4" containers, then transplanted right before they got rootbound into 1 gallon containers for a couple weeks then again to 2 or 3 gallon containers for flowering, the root system would be much healthier and robust - and able to support alot more bud growth.
When the root system is undersized for the container, it'll take the plant too long to remove the moisture from the soil...this can be beaten by knowing exactly how much to water and watering that amount ever 2-3 days, but it's not near as easy to maintain that correct ballance of wet/dry IMO with the larger pots.
