This is the second year that when I planted tomatoes that the entire plant has died. It starts from the bottom, all the leaves and stem start to die. It looks like they are dring out but I give plenty of water. Then it works it way to the top of the plant and them it is completely dead.

Could be cut worms or to much acid in the soil. Always cut away the sucker limbs that are on it. They don't produce tomatoes. That's the new one that grow between the leaf and the stalk.

sounds like blight , did you plant your tomats in the same spot as last year crop rotation will help with this to stop your new from getting infected from last years plants that sound like they were infected , you need to move them arround your gagden every year to stop reinfecting your plants
