Default Leaves on Tomato plant curling up

Pepperqueen said:

Hello to all!

I have tomato plants in large pots and tomato plants in my garden plot. The
ones in the garden plot are doing well, smaller than the ones in the
container pots, but..... The ones in the pots look like they're in
trouble??? The leaves are starting to curl up, no sign of yellowing, or
brown or bugs.


Some varieties exhibit leaf roll under stress. It's a genetic trait (wilty gene).
Pots (even large pots) tend to be warmer than the ground. Try doing something
to shade or insulate the pots.
