Hrt,

I will tell you the same as I have told all the others that have suggested heat and humidity and high night temps as the reason--------
Him and I live in the same area!!!!! Maybe 15 miles apart! So--

They are tomatoes I gave him.
Same seed--same plants
Mine are doing great and producing like mad!

The only difference may be the soil and the way he is fertilizing them. Like--maybe????? with MG all the time??? High in N?

Being a manager at HD does not give a person much free time to garden--so he may be overcompensating for lack of dwith too much fertilizing witht he wrong stuff.
I planted my tomatoes with compost and Chesapeake Blue mixed in--as well as pulverized egg shells and a bit of Dynamite--9 month--fertilizer. Have not done any more since then to speak of. My Tomatoes are THRIVING and falling over each other--as they had already outgrown their tomato cages before I left on my trip (6/29).
...it is a "jungle" out there.......:o)
