It looks like I need to lower the PH (more acidic) around my tomato
plants. The're almost 18 inches high and are budding. The soil is
heavy clay that has had lots of compost turned in. The Ph kit says
I'm at 7.5.

I assume that I can add someting that will have some effect on this
year's crop. What can I do right now, and for next year.

You need to add more organic matter to bring the soil back to a more neutral
pH range. Organic matter produces acids when it decomposes.
So, compost is the answer.
