My tomatoes are curling up, but I don't see any signs of disease. What does this mean? Also on the stem, there seems to be bumps, not disease bumps either. They are almost like water or something. What is this and what can I do?

This is my first year vegetable gardening in 12 years. My tomato plants (Big Girl) have just recently developed some branches whose leaves have started to curl.
I have a patio tomato plant that's leaves are turning under, not up. Why?

RE: Curling Tomato Leaves
There is a bug called a leaf roller. Look at it really close including the under side of the leaves. Good luck, (06/10/2009)

RE: Curling Tomato Leaves
One reason leaves curl down is too much moisture. They try to expose as much surface area to release the moisture, leaves curl up if they are too dry, trying to save as much moisture in the plant as possible. (06/10/2009)

RE: Curling Tomato Leaves
Had the same curling, immediately watered and sprayed water on leaves they perked back up in less than 30 minutes. When it's warm tomatoes go through copious amounts of water especially if in containers. (07/29/2009)

I am a first-time tomato planter growing heirloom tomatoes and am wondering what is happening to the tips of the leaves.
