A few downpours last week led to some of my peppers and tomatoes developing the dreaded blossom end rot. The showers were unexpected so I didn't have a chance to adjust my drip irrigation.
I shudder to think of BER! I've had it only once before, quite a few years ago, and I NEVER want it to happen again! Hopefully yours will be short lived, and you'll be picking beautiful tomatoes soon.
By the way, Anonymous is me, Rebecca. I am also not sophisticated enough with negotiating the interwebs to know how to appear otherwise, since I ain't got no blog.
My passions include renegade gardening (who says you can't have a vibrant, productive vegetable garden in the desert?), cooking from the bottom of my heart for friends and loved ones, rockin' the drums and making mosaics.
I've created this blog to share my trials, tribulations and accomplishments as I
pursue these passions.
Feel free to make a cup of tea or mix a cocktail and have a look around.

ReplyDeleteI hate BER. Down with BER, down with BER, down with BER. Together now, with conviction.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I'm impressed that you know what it is. I've had this happen, and settled for diagnosing it much less specifically as "bad luck."

ReplyDeleteWell Rebecca, that just has to change then doesn't it!
ReplyDeleteHey Desert Dame, I need another post to keep me happy.
