Those leaves look odd. Whats your watering schedule? pH? Well, city, rain, ro?
They seemed stress. Where they recently put outside or transplanted?
As far as pest, i cant tell if the leaf is deformed or has been muched on. Could be a lot of things not all of which are insects.

They have been chewed on i have multiple leafs with wholes in them and the edges missing and they keep chewing most of the new growth and i water them monday wednesday and friday or sat depending how the soil is and i think it might be the weather we been having lately its been super bipolar some days are nice and sunny and hot others are gloomy cloudy nd cold

They don't look well at all and pests are adding to your problem slugs or hoppers by the looks of that get some white oil use when the sun starts going down wash with fresh water in the morning peace

Could be cold weather. Plants are small right now so maybe a cheap little shelf greenhouse thing or a bookshelf with clear film. Stabilize the weather and protect from, maybe trap, the unknown pest.
Yea my dad did tell me that the weather could have the plants a little confused cuz its supposed to be spring going to summer already hes an engineer in plant genetics hes mainly fruit treea but he told me the seasons are a little off right now that all of that could have a factor on how the leafs are looking

Remember when the sun goes down bro or u will cook em
Got it and its also better when the sun is down because thats when most pest come out to feed on the plants and they hide when the sun comes up

I see no evidence of pests.
Now I'm sure there are bugs in your outdoor pots/area, but thats not what's happening
That leathery look as well as deformities can come from cold temps and/or RH. Toxicity too. Some strains more than others.

Method 1 for pest control but I don’t think that’s the only problem

I agree .
I don't think I'd be treating for pests yet.

pretty much take not of what @drsaltzman and @Oregon Grower humidity outdoors would not be a issue but cold temps are another issue causes spastic leaves is hard water i have had them spin out also split peace
