The PH of your soil was about 7 times higher than optimum for tomatoes.

I am not against no till but one of the things you didn't do this year is till.
I am more of a fan of shallow cultivation to mix the dead clippings into the soil.
No more than one inch or so deep.
After that no more disturbing the soil for the rest of the growing season as this will hurt the very important feeder roots that are on top.

So adding lime this fall when I plant my cover crop to lower the PH?
