It’s that time of year when tomatoes are top of mind, and unfortunately, so is blossom end rot. In this episode, we take a deep dive into one of the most common tomato problems and clear up the confusion around what actually causes it. We debunk popular myths about calcium tablets, eggshells, and quick fixes, and explain why blossom end rot is usually not a true calcium deficiency. Instead, we focus on what really matters: consistent watering, healthy root systems, balanced nutrients, and proper soil pH. Learn how calcium moves through your plants, why it sometimes fails to reach developing fruit, and what you can do to prevent blossom end rot before it starts. If you want stronger plants, healthier tomatoes, and a more successful harvest this season, this is a must-watch for your garden.
