Research told me that BER is a result of a calcium deficiency caused by too little water. IE: the roots cannot take up the calcium without sufficient water. I used my trusty water meter to gauge when to water. Lots of mulch on the beds so I wanted to be careful not to overwater. I'm now thinking that my error was in taking the reading with the meter pushed all the way in, showing moist soil. Maybe I should be measuring closer to the surface? Any comments you tomato growing experts??
