Clyde & All,
I'm having similar problems as Stacy,on a few 2 gal. containers (Fried
Green Tomatoes) that were stored in the garage overwinter, a little on the
dry side. Brought into the greenhouse and the top portion of the crown is
muchy. I popped it out of the pot and hosed off everything (roots looked
good) only lost a small portion of the crown. I repotted. Now I noticed
another doing the same thing. Is this crown rot?? Don't you have to have
damp wet contidions to get corwn rot?
Monty
