plant-care help pls...dunno whats wrong with my plants

Recently had similar looking (not 100% sure) problem where new growth curl and eventually change color, becomes brittle and fall off. My issue was broad mites.
 
^ yes in my experience, insects like mites or aphids that feed on the plant can cause the new growth (especially the buds) to die and drop. What is the temperature like there? Have you recently done anything that would have shocked the plant? Some of my plants that I brought in for the winter began to look quite a bit like that and I think that in their case it probably had to do with being shocked.
