Dying window box

Does anyone know why my poor window box has browning rotting leaves? I just noticed today, I have been watering regularly and feeding with tomato feed. I did notice some woodlice amongst them, could it be that? Can I save it do you think? n

    Woodlice, I understand, tend to eat things that are already dead. They don't harm plants.

    When you water, make sure it is after sunset. Small splashes onto leaves in sun can damage some plant leaves, particularly the soft leaf plants. Other possibilities are leaf scorch from feeding.

    Like Borderline, my first thought was watering in sunlight, causing leaf scorch.

    thanks AnniD & Borderline - not too serious then hopefully..will make sure not to feed/water in sunlight, I definitely have done that.  :s
