Don't be naive to think that late blight is the only dangerous disease that threatens to leave you without a tomato crop.
There is at least one more, no less insidious disease that can affect the yield of tomatoes, and its name is blossom-end rot.
Fortunately, experienced gardeners have an inexpensive and effective solution in stock, thanks to which you can prevent the development of the disease.
First, let's talk about why our tomatoes are at risk of being affected by blossom-end rot.
Blossom end rot usually appears in mid-summer and is caused by a lack of calcium in the plants or soil.
Therefore, one of the main measures to prevent the disease is fertilizing, and it is best if you apply the nutrient composition in July, during the active growth and development of tomatoes.
Calcium nitrate will help you with this; it can be called a very affordable, but at the same time effective remedy.
All that is required of you is to dilute 10 g of calcium nitrate in 10 liters of water and water the tomatoes at the roots.
