Strawberry mystery

Pleasant Hill, CA(Zone 9b)

I know this is a vegetable forum, but there is no fruit forum... so... can anyone help me understand why my strawberry leaves are all shriveled at one end? They are beautiful leaves, just on the end away from the stem, they are sort of gathered and puckery.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hmm, almost looks like a "burn" at the end of the leaves... could it be a fertilizer issue? It doesn't look like a pest problem to me. Is it spreading through the plants or through the patch, or did it seem to be a one time thing?

It seems to have been a one time thing. The rest of each leaf is beautiful and healthy. I only fertilize with seaweed tea, so I'd be hard pressed to think that would cause this sort of problem.

The plants are growing like crazy, so I'm not really worried, just curious!

Glad whatever was stressing them is no longer a problem! I've never seen that on my plants, but maybe somebody else will have experience to share...
