Dave--a question for you

16 years ago

Hi

I know that blossom end rot in tomatoes is because of a lack of calcium and caused by not keeping tomatoes moist, especially when they are flowering.

My question--Something I always wondered about.

How does the lack of moisture deplete the tomato plant of calcium? Is calcium not present in dry soil or is it just not available to the plant.

Looking forward to the answer
