Tomato End Blossom Rot

Well I have tomatoes. Tons of them. And I also have tomato end blossom rot.

Having followed the manufactures instructions of introducing 2 cups of lime per pot I can only assume that the heavy rains we had in May and early June might be contributing factors.

Sigh!

I picked up some Tomato Bloom Spray and I’ve been using that to see if I can abate the problem.

It is very irritating to see a beautiful tomato growing and then go out the next day and find the ends brown.

I’m trying not to be too bent out of shape and just keep notes for next year. There are some lovely tomatoes besides the unsightly ones but…Ugh!

Anyway here is my tomato collage, before I noticed all the ROT! for your viewing pleasure.
