Hi all,

Been doing some research on this. Plants looked fine until the other day, and now I am noticing varying degrees of twisting on the new growth of my tomatoes. They are in a new raised bed with other plants. My mom has the exact same plants, and sees nothing so far with hers. My neighbors have not done any spraying as far as I have seen, just the occasional mowing. My backyard backs up to a vacant field, and believe me no spraying has happened there. They really need to mow it down. We have had a lot of very windy days (like today for example) and temperature fluctuations (e.g. yesterday 85F, today 60F, lows have fluctuated from high 30s to 60) this month. I still have leftover seedlings in the GH, and they show none of this either. So I am fairly sure it is related to the new raised bed, although then it has to be something that only affects tomatoes. I have cucumbers, cilantro, basil, and peppers in there too and they are all fine. Any thoughts on what I can do here? I added a picture to show the plant with the worst twisting. Older growth is fine, no yellowing or curling at all. Plants are setting blossoms as well.

Thanks, Kim
