Earthtainer tomato problem?

17 years ago

I have 4 earthtainers planted with 2 of them having Better Boys and 1 with 2 Cherokee purples and 1 with 2 Brandy Wines. My problem is the 4 Better Boys are curling up the upper new growth. The Cherokee purple and Brandy wines are just fine. Basically the stem and the leaves that come off of the main trunk are curling inward toward the main trunk. Kind of like a flower that just hasn't opened yet. The plants seem healthy other wise with nice green foliage and quite a few blooms with one tomato so far. The plants were planted about the 15th of April. As this part of the plant gets older, about the top 1/3 it pretty much straightens out. So far! It seems to only be the new growth. I hope this makes sense. These are on the west side of my house and the first time I noticed it was when the sun hit them full force. At the time I thought they were just wilting for to much heat but I moved them farther away from the house and now that doesn't seem to be the case. Any ideas? Thanks for any replies in advance.
