And yellow speckles. The usual thing. But, this year, so far, only on the 3 Mortgage Lifters.

Sorry about the picture!

I have curly leaves on a couple of my CF toms too. What causes it? Thought it was just the heat in the GH, have tried to be vigilant with watering and damping down etc. Bear in mind that I am a tomato novice, so be gentle, please!

Ahoy katy, this is my first solo flight with tomatoes too :)

Bar two or three 'potato leaved' plants, all my indoor toms have been curly leaved for a while. Plottie neighbours gave frightful diagnoses of under- and over-watering, blight and Bottom End Rot ??? :-[ :'(

I stopped worrying when the trusses started fattening up, the leaves are not dry, just leathery, and seem to be doing their job - like katy I think it must be the heat :D

My leaves curled up after hot and cold spells...glad its nothing serious.

My neighbour said I was underwatering them to cause the leaf roll - he said they need 6 litres per day....yeah, righ ;D

One of my tomato varieties looks so droopy, with leaves hanging down and rolling under a little bit. Apart from that, the plants look happy.

Rhys - no professional, but I would suggest between 1 & 3.5 litres a day - depending on location & weather?
