Got a lot of tomatoes coming on now.
The bottoms of tomatoes on one plant appear to be rotting. It is a
straight black indentation across the bottom.
Is it bugs or something else.


Blossom end rot. Look it up. Usually a deficiency of calcium. I grow
mine in containers and add a handful of ground limestone every year and
have not seen it since.
