New tomato problem. I pulled a really large, Big Beef tomato today that was red. However, it had blossom end rot, even though I have been spraying NitraCal on all my tomato and pepper plants to prevent this - it's a foliar, combination spray of Nitrogen and Calcium. I didn't use this last year and didn't have this problem. So what's going on here?
I pulled another large, ripe tomato that looked like a catapillar had eaten into one side and it rotted a deep hole into the tomato.
My question is, how am I getting blossom end rot on a tomato and what can I do about it? I've been fertilizing regularly this year (as I've read/learned more about it) and I'm having a problem I didn't have before when I was more que sera, sera.
