I have seen the effects of under watering this year, and in my very small plants it looked similar to sunburn or fertilizer burn. There is one side of my greenhouse that gets hotter than the other, and the plants on that far side stay warmer, and so dry out sooner. One plant died, a few were stunted because the leaves were damaged from going dry, but are recovering nicely.

I have had older, larger plants get too dry before, and the damage looked very much like foliage disease, lower leaves and branches withered and yellowed, some fruits and flowers aborted.
