Last year's cucumbers.... sigh. |
- picked a dozen or so San Marzano tomatoes
- lamented over the second plant that seems to have fruit that is rotting from the bottom **
- picked two dozen or so yellow tear drop tomatoes
- planted lettuce seedlings in the plot under the peach tree (thank Leigh for leaving extras)
- planted snap pea seedlings (why not try for the third time this year!) Planted them closer together than last batch. Maybe it will help. ***
** Note to self. Google this and figure out what you've done wrong.
*** Doubtful! Mostly just get to the garden more to water, damn it!
Your tomato likely has Blossom End Rot, which is essentially a calcium deficiency, quite often caused by uneven soil moisture levels.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anonymous. I was thinking that might be it. I had that with my cucumbers the first year I grew them. In that case I over watered. In this case I have probably under watered and not very consistently at that! I'm a bad, bad plant Mom. I also think, maybe that I didn't do enough to repair the soil after I used that bed for beets. Thanks for reading!
