Not a pro by any means, but that sure looks like a pest issue to me...check for webs and or use a microscope/loop and check bottom sides of the leaves on the plant in the effected area.
I’m with Mak’er....the blade on the left has a caterpillar that looks like it hit it....some little insects make your leaves look like that as they eat from underneath......I use washed river sand in the top layer over my soil in the pots; little insects can’t reproduce in the sand and you won’t have infestations to worry about

Nice tip...good to keep in mind.
Make up this natural concoction to spray the underside of your leaves...
1 litre water
1 x half teaspoon at most dishwashing liquid; add it as you blend so it doesn’t foam up on you; to a point where bubbles form but don’t overtake your blender
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 red birds eye chili’s
2 or 3 cloves garlic
Blend it all together madly until it is combined; strain the liquid with something in your kitchen and put it in a spray trigger bottle. DONT get it in your eyes and use sparingly in the blazing sun/heat lamp.
Chilli will kill and deter some mites etc as with the garlic; the soap and oil gets into the shell and stops from them being able to grow....enjoy!! it keeps infestations away without chemicals all over your goodness.

Looks like pests to me... but sometimes it's hard to tell. Could be thripes or mites if it is a pest.
Thank you could you give me any advise on whether or not my plant is ready to harvest

Looks like it has some time left. At least 2 weeks.
Thank you
