I'd like to share a vegetable gardening tip. When tomato leaves curl upward, it’s often a sign of stress from extreme heat, irregular watering, strong winds, or transplant shock. The good news is that it usually doesn’t affect fruit production. To help your plants, water deeply once or twice a week instead of lightly every day, and add a layer of organic mulch to keep the soil moist and cool. If your plants face strong afternoon sun, give them temporary shade with cloth or an umbrella, and make sure they have enough space for good airflow. In most cases, the leaves will return to normal once conditions improve. If curling continues or worsens, check for pests or possible viral infections so you can act early and keep your tomato plants healthy all season.
