which plant is doing it? I have 30 or so varieties and a couple are real leaf curlers but the plants themselves look incredible. The types I have with heavy curl are Black from Tula and the one that has always been this way is Caspian Pink but they are both really beginning to set tomatoes..

Like you I was concerned when I noticed a month ago that the caspian pink was really curled...

I have a plant that did the same ~
I have to agree with the above post -

When it was very hot and dry ?
Some leaves curled upwards - with
not blemishes -
But after a good "drink" and some rain
last night ?
Most of the curling has gone away ~

Had to be environmental ~
