Its Glyphosate damage.
Here is the link and the picture in the link.
I would like to add to the comments above.
What the plant looks like from the said poisoning depends on how hard they are hit.
If memory serves me a good direct hit will cause yellowing and a slight hit will cause the curling of the leaves.
I had a job as a tree killer for the forest service when I was 16.
We would girdle trees with 24D and 245T mixed with diesel.
If you didn't do a good job of girdling the hickory the leaves would get huge.
I think I will tell the story elsewhere.

Would you think an iron deficiency would stick it's head up after years of gardening in the same plot and never seeing anything like this? The only amendments added were peat, cottonseed meal, alfalfa meal, and chicken manure[/QUOTE]

I would be suspicious of the cottonseed meal as cotton is a crop where they use a LOT of herbicides/pesticides. I wouldn't want to use cottonseed meal on my veggie garden.

That's good to know that there is some organic cotton meal around. :D I guess you can rule that one our as a possible problem.
