More disasters!
If it’s not one thing, it’s another! First the problems with the contaminated compost, and now Blossom End Rot. I suppose my tomato plants are weaker than they would normally be, and thus less resistant to disease, because (growing in the self-watering containers) they have certainly not been the subject of erratic watering which is often cited as a cause of Blossom End Rot, and I have been feeding them with proprietary tomato food which should have provided the right balance of nutrients.
There is no mistaking the signs of this disease.
It takes its name from the fact that it starts in the blossom end of the tomato fruit – in other words the end which is furthest from the stalk / calyx.
What a sorry sight! That is a Purple Sprouting Broccoli plant that has been attacked by the Cabbage Root Fly. The fly’s maggots eat into the plant’s roots, and gradually degrade its ability to take up moisture, thus causing it to collapse. Even before this happens, you will see the plant’s leaves fade and take on a matt finish, at which point you know the plant is doomed.
This is what a healthy PSB plant is supposed to look like:
