naysen,naysen,naysen. The 64 dollar question is what is causing the BER. Since it seems you have the Calcium supplements covered I'm thinking it is from STRESS caused by the overheating of the root zone. This may only be happening with the first flush of fruit and maybe subsequent fruits will be unaffected. I've seen this with tomatoes as well. here is a link on the subject that may help. Ami
