My second crop failure: Tomatoes.
How can you mess up tomatoes?
Well, in my defense, I don't think it was my fault and so far, only 1 of the 25 tomatoes on my plants has failed.
Look at it - it looks so nice.

Until you flip it over.

That's some kind of weird mold / rot that has attacked the bottom of the tomato.
At first I was optimistic - I would just cut it out. Tragically, the rot went ALL THE WAY THROUGH! Yikes. I didn't even want to touch it after that.
So I threw it away. Back to the store bought tomatoes I had on hand.
But, like I said, there are 25 ish tomatoes on my plants, just waiting to turn red. It is just a matter of time (hopefully) before we get a good one.
