I just killed off my snails around my vegetable bed but I don't know if
they were the cause of the spots on my tomatoes. What else should I
suspect is going on? I have small brown spots on most of my tomatoes.
Harvesting my fruits/veggies has always been a downer since the fruit
is damaged. HELP Thank you in advance, ME


Could be blossom end rot which is calcium deficiency. I put a couple
of handfulls of limestone (calcium carbonate) around my tomatos to
prevent this.


Would bone meal work as well?
