It looked kind of dry, when was the last time you had watered? and what have the recent temps been like in your area?

Accuweather says that locally the last two weeks have been in the mid 80's you might want to consider adding a water day during weeks with high temp averages. During our last heat wave I had hesitated in watering a little more and the tops of on of my toms said to hell with it, and got crispy, since then they've gone back to their happy selves but that was a good reminder to me to not be so completely stingy with the water.
