First year Gardener problems

Im trying to figure out what's going on with my plants. I have some in a raised bed and also 5 gallon buckets. They were doing good and still look kinda good, but some leaves are twisted. I have been watering them at least 1 time a day, usually evening. I recently watered with Alaska fish emulsion and blossom. Any advice is welcome. I dont want my expensive plants to die.

Hi@garden-worm 

Welcome to the Garden Ninja forum! I’ll need some more specific information before me and the Ninjas can help. 

Please attach some pictures of the issues to see if any one can help. 

All the best

Hi @garden-worm

Have all the containers you’re growing in for drainage holes in them?

Looks a bit like they maybe suffocating from being water logged at first glance. Hard to tell without checking the soil with a close up.
