But I believe BER is a calcium UPTAKE problem, not necessarily a
deficiency, which can be caused by pH being out of range. So first
check your pH and doa soil test before throwing money away.
> rock phosphate, colloidal phosphate, gypsum, shell meal, high
calcium
> limestone, eggshell compost (from recyclers of hatchery waste), feed
> lime which is usually (sea)shell meal or hi calcium lime (there's a
> source in Tenessee) - see the Fertrell (Bainbridge, Pa.) catalog or
> website and you'll probably find a calcium supplement just for
tomatoes.
