It has been a good week so far with bolting growth. Although Yesterday I start to notice this....

Yes, the pictures are horrible, But I'm trying not to be so necrotic these days. Let me see if I can describe the sight. The leaves look normal green color, but some of them (on some of the plants) are starting to curl up. I have watered every day this week for about 1l a plant, its been very dry and hot here. About mid week I added about 2 tlb spoons of tomato fert to the top of soil.

Any thoughts? disease or let it be?

The soil is, wait, its not really soil, more like clay, stone, rocks and some dirt. In the space to the left, there are 5 4olb bags of topsoil which was mixed with leaves and some general fertilizer.
