I am hoping someone can I.D. this wilting problem I seem to have everyyear. The plants start out great, grow large, start producing lots of tomatoes and generally act like they are very happy. Sometime around this time of year usually I start to get this wilt. It usually starts on one branch or stem of the plant and wilts completely while the rest of the plant is just fine and continues to grow and produce. Over time the original stem that wilted turns yellow then crispy brown and dies. After awhile the whole plant finally kicks it, but for awhile continues to grow and produce tomatoes. Doesn't seem to be related to watering or heat of the day issues.

Some of the tomatoes are in the raised beds that I have grown veggies in for 5 years and some are in large pots with a hand mixed blend of store bought ingredients. Every year it seems to happen. Hopefully the pics will help, you can click on them to make them larger.

Sorry if I forgot any important details, I will try and answer any questions.
