I tried researching online various tomato leaf problems, but this was not in any photos. I have about 10 potted plants on a patio - they get sun 7-8 hours a day. They all have been fertilized about 6 weeks ago with a organic fertilizer. I do use compost in my plants. No other major issues, all plants are getting tomatos and look much better. This one only has 5 tomatos and is big and is getting blossom end drop for about 3-4 weeks - nothing will set on newest growth. I am surprised the 5 are on it. I do not know what type this is, it just grew in the ground (from compost I am sure) and I planted it. Most of mine are from seed. I am tempted to rip it out, so big, so little going on. Look at the leaves, is it defiicent in something, too much, not enough all the tops looks like this on the plant. This is the only plant. Could just be a bad seed ! You can see one of the tomatos in top picture and the blossoms drying up in others. I am willing to use it as a test plant if anything else, as I have never seen this before. I appreciate your help in advance.

I may try the iron thing and the egg shells - I looked up the Cholorsis and they said it started on old leaves, this is on just the new growth on top. I wish I could find pictures of other plants online with it. The leaves actually are pretty crinkly (if that is a word) and tight. like they are producing smaller and smaller leaves as the plant grow up and out. Will see ! I guess you buy the Ironite? Going to home depot tonight will see if they have something.
