My tomatoes are having a problem with blossom end rot.
I've side dressed with calcium, they're getting enough water. What else do I need to do?

1. Here's some info...

Hope it helps. I have a large tomato in a container. It's on its last legs, but the ones planted in the ground may be suffering from flucuations in moisture. :shrug:

2. Thanks.
The only thing I haven't done, as outlined in that article, is spray them with calcium chloride. I guess I'll try that next.
