    I've noticed the same thing, but had attributed it to non-stop 100+ temps.

    Maybe it is the heat... I was thinking it might be too much sun as well (It gets sun for the better part of the day)...

    I know too much water is bad for matoes. The soil should be a bit sandy and able to drain the water down.
    I think the sign for too much water though is the leaves turning beige (dead) on the tips and edges.
