Re: Blossom-end rot


Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I think certain varieties are definitely more susceptible to blossom end
rot. Some years ago, I shared my garden with a friend (she lived in the
city at the time and had no room for a garden, and I was pregnant and
didn't think I'd use all of my garden that season). She planted San Remo
sauce tomatoes, while I planted Roma.  Her tomatoes had the worst case of
BER I've ever seen, while mine were almost entirely free of it. They grew
in the same soil, were watered the same, and fertilized the same. The only
thing I can think of that might have been different was how they were
treated as seedlings --perhaps hers got stressed early on and mine didn't.
