I don't even know where to begin explaining this. Its a beefsteak. Of the 4 tomato plants I have this one plant seems to be stunted? I'm not even sure if that's a good word for this. All the new growth is tightly curled and hasn't really grown much lately.. It has a thick rough texture and is almost crispy feeling. But doesn't crumble or break when I touch it. I have it under shade cloth and its never in direct sunlight. I water my garden deeply every morning and if it gets over 100 degrees then I water deeply at night too. Which I know sounds like a lot but I live in the high desert and my house sits just under 3000 ft in elevation and hardly any humidity at all. By the time night falls the soil is crispy 4" deep.

Anyone have any suggestions as to whats up with the poor thing?
