First tomatoes pose a problem...
So my 1st tomatoes to show up about 3 weeks ago finally start to get big enough to pick. So I pick the largest(still green), flip it over and.... Holes... I already read the sticky at the top of the forum, and did a search but couldn't find a definitive answer. Unfortunetly, in my rage to find the culprit I cut up all the tomatoes I found with these holes before I took any pics. They were all still neon green, and the holes looked like someone drilled small (1/4") holes in the bottom. They were about as deep as they were wide. They hadn't started to ripen yet, which I thought was a trait of blossom end rot. That's the only conclusion I've come to. Any help would be appreciated. Also, would this doom all my tomatoes from here on out? TIA
I was just asking some guys at work if they'd ever had slug problems. Nobody ever had, so I thought it wasn't even an issue in this area. Unfortunetly, I took all of my more mature tomatoes(they all had the exact same thing) and destroyed them thinking they were destined to fail with the holes. Although there are still 30± on the vine, it still kinda sucks. I've never even seen a slug around here!
