    I’m sure they’ll be ok, it’s been cold at nights but now it’s warming up they’ll pick up.
    the new top growth looks good.

    Some of mine were like that.
    I'd kept them in the pots too long as it was too chilly and they ran out of nutrients and root space.
    Planted them out 10 days ago and they've taken off.
    Nothing to worry about as Lyn says - It's roasting hot here today

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    I don’t think you will need to water it daily.. in a hot week like now I would probably just water 2-3 times at the most. Water deeply each time instead. Is it in the ground?

    I was running out of space early May so had to just put mine out. Some of them look terrible but plenty of tomatoes are appearing, much more so than last year when I had two metre high plants full of foliage.

    I foolishly put a tomato plant out about 2 months ago and it 'died' as in was totally wilted and brown with no signs of life. I didn't get round to pulling it up, luckily, as it has now sprung back to life! Yours looks fine in comparison so I'm sure it will recover
