Not sure what's going on with my tomatoes now. They are still growing like a weed, but the blossom's are budding are not fruiting. Also seems like most of the internal growth on the plant is starting to die off, and the exterior is still healthy as could be. Will try to get a picture of them when I get home.

The budding and not fruiting this time a year is almost always because the high humidity. Tomatoes are wind pollinated and when it's real humid the pollen gets sticky and doesn't travel well. Try giving your cages a good shake and see if you can get the pollen moving around. I shake mine pretty much every time I walk by them. The dying internal growth is probably a sign of fungus and poor air circulation. Trim out that grow. Trim up you plants from the grown to about 10" and might trim off a couple branches from the inside. Take a look at them. If the branches are producing much cut some out to increase air flow. Use Daconil Fungicide. Sold at all the box stores. 1 tablespoon in a gallon pump spray. Mist them down every 7-10 days trying to get under the leaves too.
