Tomatoes are one of the most popular vegetables grown in Colorado.
To grow tomatoes successfully, you need to be aware of three common disease or cultural practice problems. Early season problems may begin with blossom end rot. An environmentally induced abnormality, end rot occurs when temperatures are too cool during fruit set. As a result, the ends of tomatoes don't develop, are flattened, and turn black or dark brown. Erratic watering habits also contribute to this problem.
