so what soil you using? driveway dirt or high grade compost? when you put them in, do those leaves get light? you may have to flush your soil as there might be a nute build up, so many things could do this its hard to know where to start.
to take a better pic, there should be a flower button on your camera, press it until the flower comes up on screen, (it should then go away) this is called macro, now, move the camera closer or further away to get the sharpest picture on screen u can get, instead of getting closer use the zoom, the focus will stay the same, but it will get closer, holding still and pressing the button correctly also helps, good luck on taking some better pics
lastly, where abouts in the uk you from? im from poole (near bournemouth) and was jw how dry u got it there? its not bad at all here, just outta curiosity, just answer those questions and it should be easier to find out whats wrong, - peace n happy growin'...
