I have a 30-day old AG that is approximately 400 pounds. I noticed some blossom end rot. I think I am catching it early. But there are some soft spots around the blossom and the blossom is shriveled up. A very small circle of green rot is next to the blossom. I put some Calcium Nitrate granules on and watered it in real good last night. Looks a little better this morning. Any other suggestions? Am I hosed and am just gonna witness a slow death of my AG? Thanks for any help.

Keep measuring it daily to monitor growth changes. You may want to apply a sulfur paste to the soft spots and stage a small fan at the problem spot. Good luck! How many days until your weigh-off?

Thanks so much. I will monitor. I have more than 30 days to go to weigh off. Long time!
