What's this leaf up to? What am I doing wrong to the poor leaf?

Phosphorus deficiency is likely - those purple leaf edges are a classic symptom, especially when the plant is otherwise stressed from temperature swings or wet condtions, just add some bone meal or a balanced tomato fertilizer to the soil and water it in.

I am planning on giving them more tomato yum yum fertilizer tomorrow, so if it's that, then that'll also help! Thank you!
