I am at a loss

Qweniden · June 8, 2010

Most of my tomatoes are in 18 gallon tote containers. A number of the (still very green) young fruit are getting BER. This is happening on different varieties. I've done some reading and its actually made me more confused since there seems to be so many things that can cause BER: too little water, too much water, calcium, too much nitrogen....

We had heavy rains so I was conservative with my watering but I guess Im going to try and water more but its hard to know how much to water.

Anyone have any advice for me? After all this hard work its very discouraging to loose tomatoes to BER.
