This is a yellow pear tomato - it started with just one of the vines turning yellow, though I'm not sure why. Any ideas? I'm in zone 9a (norcal). I've had it since April it started showing this problem last week. More recently the other vines have started showing symptoms as well.

I'd been weakly fertilizing it twice a week with all purpose miracle gro. Last week I switched to 18-18-21 since someone suggested it wasn't getting enough P, but that hasn't seemed to have helped.

The leaves also seem to yellow from the stem out to the margins. I water when the soil is dry 3in down, which is nearly everyday now. It's in a 16in plastic container and gets full sun.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
