Who can tell me what this is?

My big tomato's have been struggling this year. Leaves wilting/curling up. 

And now some of my bigger tomatoes are getting rot spots on the bottom of the tomatoes. 

What the hell is it and what is going on?

Two things come to mind:  aphids and blossom end rot.l

No Aphids that I can see.

How do I fix blossom end rot? 

I can see some of the blossoms are now turning brown also.

There can be several causes;  calcium deficiency, too much nitrogen, too much water, and too little water all can cause it.  The last time I experienced it the cause was too much water.  Since switching to one good watering per week I have not had it.

I have a few with Blossom Rot.I was told it should pass. But yes water and lime, some say Epson Salt.

I had Aphids once got rid of them then had White Flies. 

My Tomatoes are at their maturity and look rough.

My wife is still canning but I should get some Tomatoes until frost.

Yes but how long does it take to work. 

I know nothing is immediate and I have found couple weeks.

I'm having trouble with White Flies again but like I say my Tomatoes are mature and looking rough so I'm thinking about just hitting them with a Jet of Water.

1 tbl spoon dish soap mixed in 1 gallon of water sprayed on them should kill them.

              I planned ahead and did as directions said.  When putting in starts you apply as directed. Then you can apply again later. I never had to.
