Hi - I've got 4 tomoato plants in 9 gallon planters on a patio which gets lots of full sun in morning through early afternoon... in Southern California. 3 plants seem to be doing okay. They're all heirloom, can't remember which though.

One plant started to blossom, bear fruit and now it's seems to be checking out early.

I water almost daily, never too much. Have used Miracle Gro 2 or 3 times, they've were replanted from the nursery just over a month ago.

A couple weeks ago I sprayed some insectisidal soap; and perhaps I sprayed some of that caterpillar stuff that I've used on my basil... it's not harmful but can't remember what it's called.

I don't think it was anything you did, I think there's a disease getting them. Check out this other thread where we've been discussing leaf disease, there are several good links posted:
