On 3 of my tomato plants, the leaves curled up. Plant appears to be healthy, has tomatoes on it but the leaves curled up. Any ideas on what's going on?

Could be heat/low humidity, but you'd likely already suspect that, if it was the case...same with herbicidal damage. Yellow Leaf Curl, maybe? It's caused by white flies. Or, if you're plants are getting too much water, they may be calcium deficient...

Or, if you're plants are getting too much water, they may be calcium deficient... Leaves aren't yellow just curled up. And it's only 3. I'm going to add some epsom salt for calcium. Could be to much water I guess but right now I'm only watering them a little each afternoon to keep the dirt moist since they are in buckets. I'll try to remember to take some pics and post them tomorrow.

Sounds like a lack of water. pour the water to them, you cant over water them

Definitely sounds like some sort of stress. No noticeable bugs?
Be kind to one another and tell the ones you love that you love them often. We never know what tomorrow will bring.

Could be all the wind and relative humidity causing a water shortage. Pour it to them and give um a dose of Epsom salts. If you did not fertilize your soil a dose of what ever you use might be in order too. I have been watering like crazy with the recent winds and erratic weather. Just been drying out fast. Good luck!

I watered them heavy yesterday and hit them with some epsom salt today before the rain came in. Gonna fertilize this weekend. Hopefully they will be fine.
Appreciate the replies.

Pretty sure I found the problem here. There was a picture with it but it didn't copy.
Prevent Leaf Curling Prevent Leaf Curling with Epsom SaltLeaf curling may also be caused by magnesium-deficiency in plants. Again, add Epsom salt to the soil around the base of the sick plant. Alternately, for faster absorption you can mix 2 tablespoons of Epsom salt in a gallon of water and apply directly to the leaves.
