Can anyone tell me why some of my tomatoes are developing 'flat black bottoms' (if you'll pardon the expression ;D) I don't understand it as I have had loads of lovely healthy ones.
I have transferred them into my greenhouse as they are in pots and were getting demolished by high winds. The variety is 'Alicante'.
Any help greatly appreciated :)
I can post a photo if necessary.
Blossom end rot. Caused by insufficent calcium getting to the tissue. This in itself is a sign of lack of water at some point.
Beat me to it by 3 secs, John!!

Many thanks John & Tim :) I suppose I should have done some reseasrch on the board, but it takes forever so quicker to ask a fresh question ;) :)
