What's this leaf up to? What am I doing wrong to the poor leaf?

It's been getting to around 65F at night, but last few nights have been cooler but not by much! It's generally been pretty hot here, up to the 90s with so much humidity.

Ah they’re usually fine till under 10c but I do also believe it will create anthocyanins under more or less any type of stress as well. Bugs, rain, wind, etc.

The rain is either nonexistent or dumping buckets so I'm sure they do not enjoy that! Only bugs I've seen seem to be good bugs as told to me by the bird scientist I bother with pictures of bugs (and birds and squirrels and rabbits)

I've added more tomato yumyum food and miracle gro water because others have said it might be a vitamin def so trying that as well. Thank you for your help!
