snip<Your tomato problem is possibly a calcium difficiency. It not only causes
I am also failing at getting a lot of corn. Lodging is my problem-or maybe it is a symptom...windy location? not enough sun to make thick stalks? I dunno.
snip< I'm getting lots of tomatoes this year, but I'm seeing a virus in my Roma X Amish paste that I have never seen before. The plant and fruit looks perfect, but inside, there is a black, hard, atrophied area at the seed core where there are underdeveloped seeds. I've been slicing the tomatoes lengthwise and scooping out the dime sized bad area, but I would like to know what caused it. I've been saving these tomato seeds for a few years now. They are good paste tomatoes, mostly a cross between Roma and Amish paste-pear shaped and larger than the average Roma, but I haven't seen this problem before. Is it a bug, a climate-related disease, or a virus? I haven't seen this occur in any of the other varieties.
