    To add further, most people with blossom end rot are watering incorrectly, ie a little every day, when you should water a lot but less often (about every 3 days, depending on your climate). Mulching will also help you manage better, and testing the humidity of the soil before watering goes a long way.

    Remember, tomatoes are plants from warm regions, they can handle a little drought but they do much worse if they’re over watered. Watering deeply and less often also encourages them to develop deeper, stronger roots.
