Have often tried to plant oxheart tomatoes, but they always seem to attract

with my ordinary tomatoes. What do you think I am doing wrong?
Cheers, Margret



Perhaps you have to pick them at the pink stage or are you meaning
blossom end rot. They may be more calcium sensitive than the others and
you can get a special spray for that.

Don't know why insects would find them tastier. You may have to use an
insecticide.
