A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Food Garden Forum The Tomato Forum fixed cracks now bottom of tomato is bad

I live in southwest texas. I wrote about cracks in tomatoes and learned from here that the cause was too much watering. we cut back on water but now the tomatoes are mushy on the bottom. top of tomato is great but about 1/4 of the bottom is mushy. tomatoes are not on the ground. does anyone have help for this problem.

it's called blossom end rot and is from a deficiency, but i can't remember what kind.

thanks. so it is something i need to add to the soil or spray on the plant you think.

add to the soil. my brain just isn't coming up with the solution.

ok, i looked it up. it is a calcium deficiency. click here to learn more. the garden helper has good info

thanks very much. this is very helpful. my husband will love finding this info so fast. i just found this website and absolutely love it. thanks again for the help.

glad we could be of help!
