Q. I only have 4 tomato plants. I planted them in mid May, I watered them every morning through our hot days and the first tomatoes were beautiful. Now about 4 out of 5 have blossom rot. Somebody told me I could pour some powdered milk at their root system and that would help?
A. There are several reasons why your tomatoes may have developed blossom end rot, including the excessive heat.
