I’m so glad I watched this. I’ve been worrying to death about my beefsteaks and im pretty sure it’s just the heat. It’s been AWFUL this year. Thank you so much!
I reluctantly pulled about ten plants yesterday and this video confirms that it was the right move. Stunted growth. Curly leaves. No blossoms. And spreading. Extended early rains. And a fairly large presence of the leaf hopper bug which I had no clue was capable of spreading this virus. I still have a separate area of tomato plants that are doing well, so I am still hopeful. Thanks for the knowledge.
I work for a CAPCA (California Agricultural Pest Control Advisor) & I started since I was 19 yrs old, I didn’t know anything & I’m 22 now & throughout those years I’ve learned a lot & tomato crops were one of the crops that I’ve been wanting to know more deeply & your video is very informative & explains almost everything I need to know, Thank you 🙌🏽 Btw I’m also planning on going to college & get Certified as a PCA 🙏🏽
I swear I feel like I can become a botanist with all the info you give us! Love it!

My wife feels relief after watching your video. She has 15 tomato seedlings in red cups (per your planting style), waiting for our nighttime temps to get warm enough for planting. Some of the tomatoes have leaf curl, and I'm sure now it's due to wind and our arid climate. Thanks so much for your help with this Brian!
It’s 2023 and you helped me save a plant. I’m in zone 9, a newbie gardener, I bought shade cloth to help protect the plants from afternoon heat “stroke”. Your work continues to teach! Thank you
It's hot, dry and windy here this year. My tomato plant has leaf curl. Thanks for the answer. I've been worrying about it.
Just noticed I have leaf curl on one of my plants but after listening to your video on leaf curl I watered the plant yesterday and I probably overwatered so no real problem but I wanted to let you know your video on leaf curl was very helpful.
I
Good drainage is key. great drainage and a every other day watering cycle has worked pretty well for me. Finger the soil.
My curly leaf is at the top only, and it curls under. A week or so ago, we had a hail and strong wind storm, and it damaged a lot of leaves... before that they were healthy and proud. Overnight I saw holes and stress in the larger lower leaves, and they are browning around the edges of the holes. Shortly after, I got curly top on the one plant. I had been spraying with neem oil weeks before it happened. Well, I moved all my plants in buckets further under the pergola and seperated them more. Shade cloth is going up before it hits 90, and it's going up to high 90's today. Thanks for all the timely info!
Glad you are feeling better. Beach sand and sunshine and sound of the surf, all great therapy!
I had leaf curl and I thought my plants were dying turned out heat was to blame 👍👍👍
Hey Brian, thanks so much for posting this! I’ve never had issues with leaf curl but have the past couple weeks so this video came at the perfect time! I really appreciate your informative videos and your passion!
Great video! I have leaf curl due to excessive heat here in N TX. I thought it was the heat, but good to know I was correct.
I know a lot of time has passed, but just wanted to let you know I found this very informative and that I’ve got a lot of curling going on and you’re starting to become concerned. Thanks again Brian for clearing things up.
Excellent in-depth explanation of many different types of issues. I can tell he’s very knowledgeable about this and is the guy that could actually save a plant if you so choose. Thanks for the upload
Thank you for addressing this issue. I have two kinds of leaf curl and now I know how to handle it! Love your channel. Take care.
Thanks Brian. You have just taken a load off my mind with your explanation of the causes of leaf roll. I had so much last year with thick stems and leathery leaves, I was sure the plant would die, however it didn’t effect production. Can’t wait for tomato season again here in Australia. I’m going to concentrate on making chunky salsa this time as my larder is full of last seasons sauce and paste.
Every year I grow tomatoes and every year I'm stressed out of my mind. I dont know why I do this to myself.🤦♀️
OMG me too!
I didn’t know this was going to be so hard. Next year flowers.
Every year I say never again.
We planted heirloom tomatoes this year and all of them curl. We bought few extra varieties “just in case.” We live in the S. Cali desert 🌵 so we have HEAT! I’m getting shade cloth. We also have very windy days and nights. I’m thinking of adding fertilizer with more phosphorus. We do not use herbicide at all.

Very timely video because my tomatoes are tightly curled in the top of the plants. I will go out in the morning and check to see if the soil is too wet. Thanks for all your wise gardening information.
I watched your youtube a couple months ago and combined your idea (stringing my tomatoes up) with a 20 gallon wicking tub (Leon from OK--it waters the plants from the bottom up and give oxygen & water to the plants roots as the water is wicked up to the roots). It was going beautifully until it wasn't! I first noticed end rot. I used tums ground up and added to the plant and that took care of the problem but right after that I think I ended up with possibly "blight" (all the leaves on the bottoms of the plants-then all of them were brown and "crunchy") but the blight really couldn't be stopped. I started a brand new wicking tub but left the old one "growing" because it had a bunch of tomatoes on it but they are only ripening one tomato at a time and not very sweet. I watched this video because one of the 3 tomato plants in my NEW wicking tub had some curling leaves. It has been pretty warm here in CA (end of Aug) so I think I am going to be ok according to this video..so thanks for that!.
But I am so discouraged with trying to grow tomatoes. I'm so afraid something is going to get these new tomatoes too! I guess I should take down the first tub of tomatoes as they are not really growing and the tomatoes are ripening so slowly and not tasty really. The tubs are about 12 feet from each other. I am writing this in hopes those who read this might have some suggestions or encouragements as I really am frustrated and just want to have good tasting tomatoes!! Thanks in advance!
Brain, just got my toms planted in pots 6/01. We are suffering from 85 - 90 days lately. I've covered the patch with shade and that helps the poor babies from wilting. I mixed up a good nutritional soil mix this year and I have babied the seedlings from the start. If we don't get a hail storm later this month I expect a decent crop here in zone 4a. Cheers, friend. Bob in Montana
I have curly leaf on my young tomato plants. Will try the watering at night to see if its not a virus. thanks for the great info.
No need for other channels when you're subbed to Next Level Gardening! Thanks Brian!
Hi Brian.....You always try to be as thorough as possible in your tips. Thank you for this and a reminder of what these symptoms mean. Much appreciated and your presentation is always great !!
boy am I happy I saw this … seem like I just have the lack of water thing .. I watered heavy late afternoon and just a few hours later it was already better and next morning it was back to normal .. happened a few days in a row, now we have had a few colder days with a little rain and haven't seen it since... thanks
Your tomatoes are growing so tall in the background. Love it!
I am growing tomatoes like you now, b/c of you. I made my posts by making teepees with wood, 8 feet tall wood, put in ground about 8 inches, and tied the three posts together with string to pull them towards the soil and provide a more secure post. I connected two posts with another 8 foot piece of wood. (I’m using roller hooks, though.).
Thank you for covering this, we've been watching our tomatoes last curl for a few weeks and it only got worse, we immediately pulled half our tomatoes out, so it doesn't spread to the others. 🍅
First year gardener & just set up new raised garden bed for fall planting. Appreciate your videos. I’ve learned so much.
Thank you 🙂
Thanks for explaining the simple leaf curl , I live in Cornwall UK and for a month we’ve had unusually hot dry weather for the time of year ,also a very drying wind so my outdoor Tomatoes are getting this leaf curl so I assumed they were too dry , now I know the reason I’m not concerned . I love your water feature it looks so tranquil just there in your beautiful garden.❤️
Thank you for this! Perfect timing. I was checking my garden last night and noticed this on my tomato plants, all of them. I live in NW Indiana and last week it was in the 60"s- 70's here this week 90's. So I'll be doing a deep watering tonight.
Thanks for this informative and very useful clarification of tomato leaf problems. I’ve had them all!!!!🥴
Thankyou for sharing. My tomatoes were curling and i was wondering if it was normal or a problem. I have yet to spray my plants with anything yet, so I thought it might be bad but from your description they're fine. Lol This is my second year of gardening and because of you and a few other gardening channels I can certainly say my garden looks way better this year. Thanks again for all you do. Take care and blessings.
As we would say this video came in clutch!! 😄 in otr words it came at the right time. I'm experimenting growing tomatoes otr than tiny tims for the very first time & my only plant I have going leaves are all curling. I got worried thinking i'm doing something wrong. I figured maybe its too hot (I live in the Caribbean & right now temps are between 84°/85°). Got on here & what popped up as a suggested video! I now realize I have 2 of the issues you mention, the heat & the wind. Thanks a mil Brian👍
Great video. In Florida, the TYLC is normally spread by White Fly. It’s the worst. The only solution I found was growing resistant varieties like Big Beef and of course controlling the flies. Extreme pruning helps keep fly populations down too.
Thank you. We have had heat wave yday and my healthy happy looking tomato plant in my planter EOD had some of the top most branch leaves curled upward. I have been watering my plant twice and one branch looks a bit better this morning but few others don’t look good still. Keeping my fingers crossed as the temps are going to be better starting tonight.
Love your videos! Thx! Thorough, simple, informative, easy to understand and timely. I save more of your gardening videos than any others😍🍓🍅🥬🥒
First time watching you. THANK YOU for the great advice and being able to visually see what these problems look like.
So much to learn Brian. My garden is doing great even though I was behind on transplanting my seedlings but whatever I get I am happy. Next year will be better. Thank you for your tips and time, blessings🍅🍋🍆🌶🥒🌱
Laura Zavala same here I was late to and had to plant without planing because of my fence being made but next year will do better
Thank you Brian. I have been stressing this week over that leaf curl, but we’ve just had a few really hot days here in UK, and then yesterday such a strong wind. I am using a moisture measure as I can’t stand not knowing what is going on deep down those grow bags. I try to keep the soil moist not wet. I got excited when I saw my little plants shoot indoors in winter. I never realised what a lot of work this would be. OMG - Stressful.
Affect. Affect is a verb, effect is a noun.
Thanks for the clear instructions which are easy to remember and to put into practice.
I got ahead of it and am using shade cloth, the plants are doing great and I plan on keeping it that way.
Thanks for the great info! I live on the East Coast of Florida and I fight white flies to the death! They are very common here and I use Neem oil in my garden to combat them. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose.
Same here on the west coast FL. White flies and aphids, although I have a nice population of lady bugs.
Maybe Diatomaceous Earth might help with the aphids and white flies.
Have recommended your site to neighbours who are asking me about problems with their tomatoes - thanks
My daughter is a young and new veggie gardener and last summer had several tomato plants with thick leathery upward curling leaves. The plants grew and produced sparsely, but the leaves remained curled most all of the St. Louis summer . No browning or yellowing found. At first we were concerned that perhaps some nearby Bermuda grass (aughhhhh, can't stand that grass!!) that had been treated with Round UP, had wind drift of the chemical, but my hub said he was very careful of that issue. Most all of the leaves of the plants were upward curled along the edges only. From this video, I am thinking it was a watering issue. Missouri is known for its clay soil, and while we tried to work the soil, my guess is that it wasn't good enough. Thanks for an informative video (again) and we're looking forward to a better crop this summer 2021!!
Thank you so much for this video! This is my first year and I have a Celebrity doing this exact thing, thicker leaves and curling up. It is caged right inbetween an Early Girl and a Sweet 100. Which are not doing it. The EG was kind of doing it a week ago when it was really hot. It’s also shorter than the other two and all were planted at the same time! I installed a shade cloth yesterday. It’s super windy where we are ALL THE TIME and pretty sunny/hot. It was 91F. We will see how it goes ;). Thank you again!
Hello Marianne, how are you doing today?
Thanks for the info, I have this on my tomato plant. It is the physiological curl so I put aluminum perporated as shade to protect but the temp here is really hot.
Yes! I was looking forward to this! I’ve been looking for causes for leaf curl on the net but you explain it so much better ! I somehow always get it with you! 👍
Thanks for all the advice. Even though I don’t live in a southern climate, for the most part it all applies to my garden as well. I live on Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada. This will be the first year for my raised bed garden since moving here 3 years ago.. I”m paying close attention..... :)
Had this very thing, noticed when I got home from work today, of course I ran right out and watered, LOL Next time I will check the soil first. Thanks for all the great info my garden looks great!!
Very good video. You explained some common problems well. Thank you
Thanks for sharing I'm finding your channel very helpful
Thanks so much. One of my tomato plants has curled leaves... But they are going downward & under, not upward. I just watered well and will check inn the morning to see if it's feeling better!
I was waiting for this video. The patio tomato plant in a container has curled leaves and now I know why thanks to you: the past two super windy days and dry climate. Other than that, the plant is green, flowering, and quite happy under the shade tree with diffused light. The two tomato plants planted a week ago into the soil, are taking off and loving the partial shade of a nectarine tree. I'm finding that even citrus grows better in our semi desert climate, in partial shade. They don't like to get sunburned! Thank you, my kindred spirit.
wow what a timely video.i just started noticing curling on my plants yesterday and was starting to freak out.
I really enjoyed this video, especially the part on the yellow leaf curl virus. I had that problem on my young plants under my lights. I didn’t know what it was, but, I did have some white flies. You can bet I will be getting some jerk oil this year. I got rid of the houseplant that was harboring them, but, they are still around.
It’s such a funny coincidence that you are just posting this video, because I’ve been working this past week on bringing my tomato’s back from herbicide exposure. I figured out through lots of research that the cow manure compost I bought and layered through all my containers and bed was contaminated with herbicide. So my friend’s mom, who runs a community greenhouse, told me to report them in fresh soil and compost, and to dig out around the top of the ones in the bed and full it back in with fresh compost and used worm castings at the base of the plant. So far it’s actually working and they are coming back! 😄 and since they are indeterminates, I left the top sucker just in case the top doesn’t come back I can at least grow a new lead.
YES! I needed this video!!! Just pulled a Black Krim for leaf curl and replaced with the same and looks like I made the right call.
Good morning! Hope you are doing great! Love the video!! Thank you for the info. Had to say bye to one of my babies 😭 Got the white fly disease. I can't help but get close to my plants. I think seeing them emerg from the ground for the first time brings out the paternal instinct in me. Lol I am odd lol. As a kid ( many years ago) I felt sad eating a water melon that I planted lol Am I the only one that felt that way? Lol. Take care and may all of you have a blessed day.
I know, they are all like my babies too. When I go to harvest something I thank the plant for the wonderful gift they are giving me and then I don't feel guilty because I know they are happy to furnish it,
Thank you Brian m just experiencing this leaf curls for the first and I thought they lacked water since it's very hot here now in South Africa I nearly worsened the situation thank you so much with that information I will get some covers for them KEEP THE GOOD WORK👌❤️🇿🇦
Perfect timing....I’m afraid I have one of the bad ones 😞 after you video I’m going to remove the few that look concerning to be on the safe side! TY for your awesome content!!
🙁
That was a perfect explanation. Great work.
I live in Oklahoma and the temperature has been over a 100 degrees for weeks.
Thanks. Good information. Raleigh NC. Mid 90s weeks without water. I water every 3rd day.
I have a lot of experience with whiteflies growing in zone 10b of South Florida. If you are in the north, whiteflies are mostly harmless and isn't a big concern. In tropical region that is both hot and high humidity, which is around zone 10, they are pervasive. Whiteflies are active in the hotter months, no amount of spraying will stop their population at this time as long as they have a food source or habitat. The way to reduce their population is to not provide them with food source during the hotter months. Wait for the cooler season for them to leave before growing the plants they are attracted to. Whiteflies are primarily attracted to the nightshade family, so that includes tomato, pepper, regular potatoes, eggplants. Also morning glory, jasmine, black nightshade, goji berry, sweet potatoes, sage, water spinach. The main concern with whiteflies is that they carry tomato yellow leaf curl virus, which is incurable to the plants. Planting herbs companion will not prevent whiteflies, neither is any form of organic spray in this kind of environment. But it is still a good idea to spray below the leaves of whiteflies infested plants and prune them to allow more airflow.
For Zone 10 in Florida, by mid-April, I started cleaning up all my nightshade plants. I do not try to grow them into the the hotter months. I will start seeds for pepper and tomatoes in September or October indoor and won't bring them out until it's cool enough and most of the whiteflies are gone, like beginning of November. With Florida, problem with this is you can get wet and cold months late and early in the year and tomato plants get fungal diseases easily under wet and humid conditions, so it's a good idea to use organic biological fungicide on your tomato and pepper seedlings, and spray them with it every 2 weeks.
Now if you're in Zone 8 or 9 of Florida, then it gets cooler sooner and you can bring the tomato and pepper out earlier, like late September. So in effect, if you time it right, you can gets two tomato seasons; September to year end, and then New Year to April.
Thanks for the reminder, north Georgia subdivision, going to start another garden from seed july 3rd!
Love all of your suggestions and the education I'm getting from you.
Very informative. Thank you.
You are the only channel i watch religiously every spring. Thank you for your super informative videos, i hope your health and family are doing well!
Thank you! Yes. Doing well ❤️
Great information. Thanks
I only have two plants so I'm gonna try to fight the viral leaf curl with the yellow leaves, since they both have it. I did the neem oil today, gonna ramp it up more frequently, and pray a lot! Can the plants already be infected when purchased. I got a real late start and only planted two tomato and 1 basil
Very informative and useful.
I don't use herbicides so no problem there. Does get hot in Georgia so have to be careful there. No viral problem either. A little leaf curl but nothing to worry about. Been using epson salts on my tomatoes and peppers. Both are abundant with fruit so no problem there either. Guess I'm blessed this year😉
Thank you for this info. This year in KY our temps are at 90+ to 100. Its dangerously hot. My tomatoes are curling. Especially my Cherokee purple. My Indiana reds are fine.
Great advice thank you here in Washington state we’ve had five straight days of rain and I think now that’s my tomato problem my garden is five gallon self watering system
Very helpful! Thank You
Excellent advice as usual! Forwarding this to my daughter who is a new gardener... thanks!
Great video!! Thanks for the information and tips.
Another excellent video. Thanks!
Thanks Brian --- Ray Sussex NJ USA
funny i was looking at my plant wondering why its leaf had curled and up you pop brilliant
Same!
Same! I swear my phone is listening to me ... hold on? I didn’t say it only was thinking it ? Weird ...
Yeah same here.
zarbifish sews same here. uncanny isn’t it?
It’s called synchronicity. It means You’re doing what You’re supposed to be doing🙂.
Nice, useful. Thank you very much appreciated.
What the best way to keep tomatoes from drying out in pots and how often do you need to water.
Exactly what I needed to hear, Brian! Thank you for setting my mind at ease.
You can add southern blight to the list. This is brown bumps appearing on the vine near the ground. Within 1 day the leaves curl and begin to droop. The next day the bumps have spread. It is a fungus and will spread. However I treated it like a scalp fungus and boiled about 2 tablespoons of dried oregano and 1 tablespoon of dried rosemary in 4 cups of water. I reduced the temperature to simmer for 10 minutes then let it cool. I strained it and put it in a spray bottle. I heavily sprayed all plants for 3 days. I put the boiled oregano and rosemary leaves at the bottom of the healthiest plants. The ones that looked better after 3 days of treatment I kept all others were pulled up and destroyed
I always bury my diseased plants amd grow the same crop in the same place the next time i plant. "Dis-Ease" in a plant is always due to either lack of minerals in the soil or lack of biological activity to make the minerals available to plants. It doesn't make sense to me to throw away all of the goodness in the soil and the plants just because some plants didn't make it to maturity. Those plants still contain nutrition for the next year's crop. Although "dis-ease" may appear to "spread" from plant to plant, I believe the "spread" is due to something lacking in the soil biology. Bury your mis-takes and work on increasing biological diversity in the soil is the alternative I suggest.
Excellent descriptions as usual. I was just about to yank out a tomato plant that exhibits the first example. This is 1 out of 7 that I planted at same time, same conditions - all the others look perfectly healthy and thriving. I was concerned about disease but now I'm comfortable waiting to see what happens. Maybe I just put too much fertilizer in the first one during planting. Thanks Brian!
Idk how I’ve never seen this channel before but this is so helpful and informative, thank you!!
Here it is a rare day between early May and late September that is less than 90 degrees F. Also our humidity is very high. I have found the F1 Juliet type tomatoes perfom very well.
One of my 4 tomato plants had leaf curls and decided to let it go last week 😞but now the one next to it looks like the leaves are starting to curl. I’m really hoping this is due to multiple high winds we had. It will be more sad if this is viral, but hope to harvest something then I’d be happy. Thanks for this video- lots of great information.
It's possible it could be the wind. Don't give up 🙂
California Garden TV - Advice for All Climates ... Thank you! Hopeful... considering we had hail twice and high winds -the veggies survived except for one. Funny, I’m a new subscriber and happen to watch @CaliKim’s video on her book release and you were in attendance! You both have great channels.
I have been wondering, pulling my hair out, and researching a lot as to why my tomatoes are dying, or look like they are dying? This is my first year growing vegetables and because of space restrictions I planted in containers (pots). After seeing this video I’m 99% sure my soil in the pots is getting to hot from sitting on my cement patio and front steps. This area gets sun all day, (8-10 hrs+). I figured this was the best place but now I’m learning different? My peas are kinda dying or look like they are dying anyway, at the bottom there yellow and green at the top, so things seem to make sense as to what you are teaching here. Thank You and if I’m missing something else please feel free to let me know!
It’s rare I learn something new about tomatoes but I just did. I didn’t know about the lead hoppers and white fly. I will be adding a neam schedule now. I was wondering what that was infecting my tomatoes and assumed humidity but it has all the signs of the virus issues you posted. I grow year round so always new plants to play with. Thanks!
Such great information!
Great video and lots of pertinent info. So glad you and your family were able to have a fun day out. Very well deserved! Stay well! Continued thoughts and prayers for your ongoing health. ❤️🌹
Thank you Brian this was very helpful first year in many years I’m growing three tomato plants. The San Marzano plant has some beautiful fruit but now the top of the plant has very small curly leaves not fully grown. I think it must be infected. I don’t see any bugs. At first I thought it needed more water. I tested the soil. It seems fine. Not sure what to do?
Hi! Thanks a lot for this video. It is very informative and I will be checking all of my tomato plants and keeping in mind all of the things you mentioned.
I grow all of my tomatoes in containers and I read somewhere that marigolds can help deter white flies from tomatoes. I think it works! I have not seen or had any white flies on my tomatoes this year! The previous year when I did not plant any marigolds, there were white flies everywhere! However, snails seem to absolutely love eating away at the leaves of the marigolds.
Thank you so much , you have just answered my controversial question if i should keep the affected tomato or not.
Thank you big guy for your knowledge and sharing it, I've had some whitefly issues on our tomato plants right now and wasn't sure if the Neem oil was the answer or at least the right thing to do. Haven't lost anything as of yet and all plants are doing excellent but have noticed some of the white flies on some of the plants. So I guess I better go and get these plants sprayed! No need to worry about getting back to me I know you're very busy I just wanted to let you know I appreciate you sharing all that you've learned. My family thinks I'm smart now, LOL!
Thank you. Initially searched for help as to why my baby seedlings/starts were getting leaf curl. I think they were too close to the grow lights. Once they are planted out in the garden ( I started too soon for 8b) how often do you spray your vegetable plants with neem oil? Great channel! Happy I happened upon it during my search.
Awesome info, THANKS!
Good day you gave been very helpful. Thanks for the information. I had experienced those problems. Tomatoes are one of my favourite crops. Thanks again.
Thank you! I’ve been wondering why my plants have been curling. I’ll be heading over to the garden today to inspect a little further. Thank you!! ☀️
If you have problems with nightshades and legumes specifically, it could be from aminopyralid herbicide residue in your soil or compost. Did you purchase any garden soil, compost, or straw to mulch with?
I just posted a video showing this type of damage on my gardens if you want to compare the effects of this herbicide to your plants.
ruclips.net/video/XuM20n3K-_Q/видео.html
Caroline Hamm thank you! I took over a garden plot from another gardener and think the soil was fine. But I did bring in a bail of straw for mulch. I think that may be my culprit. I’m going to go over and take a closer look today. I appreciate your video and tagging me. 💕
thanks for posting this, my cherokee purples do that so now I know how to help them
Thank you SO much for the tomato update. Prevention is key!
Thanks so much, needed this info for my tomatoes 🍅 and may you continue to feel better 😊
