Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. I am unable to see the damage, and area around the plant.

There are many things that can cause this. Low humidity, high temperatures, over and under watering, calcium and magnesium deficiencies, phosphorus deficiencies, and several other factors can cause this.

Sometimes, this can be normal behavior until the plants are mature enough to bear fruit, comfortably.

Here are some articles that will help:
