A few leaves are still curled, but over all it's looking much better. I hope your plant takes a turn for the better, too.Christahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905386163490128028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-15062602562901207992007-06-04T16:43:00.000-07:002007-06-04T16:43:00.000-07:00Christa: Let me know if the rain changes the leav...Christa: Let me know if the rain changes the leaves. I've now experimented with more water and less, to no effect. The plant seems perfectly healthy (other than the leaves) and it is literally COVERED with fruit. I won't trust that it actually is healthy though until I get a bucketful of ripe fruit.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12607821498331135305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-86255940399990785932007-06-04T15:43:00.000-07:002007-06-04T15:43:00.000-07:00One of my tomato plants is doing the same thing an...One of my tomato plants is doing the same thing and I've been trying to figure out why. We got heavy rain yesterday, so I'm waiting to see if that might cause the plant to uncurl its leaves again. I hope so.Christahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905386163490128028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-18508267890523063682007-05-28T21:24:00.000-07:002007-05-28T21:24:00.000-07:00Susan: Thanks for the advice!

Tomatoes curl their leaves to conserve water.<BR/><BR/>Don't know why other tomatoes in plot aren't affected. Could be the Krim is more sensitive to water issues than other varieties. <BR/><BR/>There could be a whole host of other reasons, from 2,4-D drift from another garden patch, to viral problems, but these usually manifest in other obvious symptoms than just leaf curl. <BR/><BR/>You could experiment with the watering, but the proof will be in the setting and healthy growth of the fruit. No need to be hysterical at this point.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14970742141705361136noreply@blogger.com
