I have stopped blossom end rot within 2-3 weeks just by scratching a
small
amount of lime into the dirt around the base of the plant, and then
watering
it in good.

Since BER will stop all by itself as the season progrwessses any such
"cure" is moot

Why would that be? Years ago, I would simply ignore the problem if it
occurred on just one or two plants, and if I had enough to satisfy those
tomato 'urges'. The problem did not correct itself.
