Thanks Durgan for the vinegar suggestion. I tried it first with a low dose of only about an ounce to the gallon and a week later the plants looked much better so I upped it to a couple of ounces to the gallon and the plants resumed blooming and started setting a good amount of fruit. I know my soil is high in phosphorus but it also has a high ph so I guess the plants weren't able to take up enough even though they were getting some in the liquid fertilizer. I did this with some of my tomatoes that were showing signs of iron deficiency and it helped them almost immediately. Good cheap solution, the kind I like.
