i think i know what you're trying to describe, but get a better pic. take a couple steps back and make sure you're focused on the plant, not the wall behind it. in the mean time, this will be moved to DD

id raise the PH a little bit more to 7 (ideal is 6.5 - 7.0) soils that are under 7 can cause a little bit of a MG deficiency and it shouldnt happen if you used dolomit lime when you transplanted...an Mg deficiency can be treated by watering with plant epsom salts, but im not 100% sure yet..... is there any rusty lookin spot on the older (lower) leaves? ....how long has this been going on? what is your PPM/TDS/EC level in your runoff because if its high that could have cause this too.....

PPM/TDS/EC levels are the same thing just different measurements......it tells you how concentrated or diluted your nutrients are.........i think it may be an Mg dificiency but usually its rare, is the plant getting like more green by the day?....usually it takes like a month to even notice signs of Mg deficiency but to treat Mg feed 2 teaspoons epsom salts to one gallon of water, for a quick result foliar feed with 2 percent epsom salt solution....do that until the symptoms are gone....use a little diluted nute solution for like a week too....next time just add some top quality dolomit lime to your soil before planting....it will help Mg and calcium balance out in the long-run....also raise your solution PH just a tad when watering.....

as in bath salts, hasn't that got other chems in as well?
they appears to be getting more dark green, only the fan leaves though. the smaller leaves above the top node are lighter.
