One of my blossom ends (tip) is starting to fall off at day 20, everything else is fine, its just the center where we put our pollen to pollinate the female. Anyone else have this trouble before? Ive had this problem a few years back on my 845 I grown but I dont think its was quit like the problem Im having with this one. I cut the rest of the blossem end off and applied deconil.
I been looking for a thread about something similar that happend to my 845 blossom end that I grown. It was talk about growers cutting off their blossom end even if there wasnt anything wrong with it, It ended up being a really interesting thread, I was wondering if anyone else could help me find that thread on here?

thanks

Shiz, one more thing, what did you put in the search to find that? I was putting in ''Blossom end'' and all that was coming up was the diarys, I cant get any message board threads to come up when I enter that.

Brooks - 2 years ago I had a blossom end nub that was getting really rubbery, almost like it was starting to rot. I cut the thing right off flush with the fruit and put some captan on it. That one became my 1407.

I typed in...fell off

I scrolled down and there it was "blossom end"

I forgot to mention that it took me a few tries also. It was a tricky one.

Anyways, glad to help Brooks!
