Just about all my new lower branch growth looks like this. Across 12 plants. I did see some thrips last week and sprayed Safer 3 in 1 on the plants to treat. Noticed this about a week later

Wow, I see what you are talking about, it must be from the spray. The good thing is you can easily up pott in a larger container. Lay some yellow stickies on top of the pots next to the plant stem to see if there are any bugs.

If they're too small to see, they're probably mites.

Also, th e plant is hurting a little because of the small size of the pot, which may make it more attractive for insect attack.

So I would:

- Repot them into their final pot, with new soil.
- Put a piece of clove on the surface.

The eugenol in clove kills mites, and acts as a deterrent. The terpenes of the clove are absorbed through the air.

Otherwise the plant looks nice and healthy.

Looks like either water problems and/or damage by high dosed insecticide. It will most probably go away with the right care.
