SPECTACULAR SMELL, that fish emulsion!!!

And try it mixed w/ stinging nettle tea!  It took two whole days for my 
hands to stop stinking!  Would have had to sleep in a separate room, but 
my wife was, um, er, malodorous, too!

Whew -

Blossom End Rot is usually only a problem during weather extremes and then only to my paste tomatoes and some sweet pepper types.  Even when I used Epsom Salts regularly it didn't seem to make much difference.  I tried one application of Ironite this year and think it was beneficial.
