Hi everyone,
Hope you can help me here. What is causing this in my tomatoes? Seems to be affecting only my table/eating variety. I do not see any visable evidence of worms or bugs. I have noticed that the water emitter to this plant was plugged up.

Any advice would be so appreciated. Thank you.
Anne

Hi, Grow 4 Food,
Thank you for your response. I did notice that the drip emitter had plugged up and I corrected that yesterday and gave extra water.

What is MG ?

Mine did the same thing while I was on vacation. We did not get much rain then we got Hurricane Fay and 4 inches of rain. Have you tried to eat your tomatoes DD ranch? Do they still taste ok if you cut off the wrinkly part?

Grow 4 Food.....you know I gave them a dose of Miracle Grow last night.....just didn't know the abbreviation. I love MG !! Thank you.

Red Clay.....I gave those to my chickens so don't know how they tasted. The plant seems to be doing better with a cleaned out emitter and some extra water and Miracle grow. Hopefully, this is just a water problem that has been solved and not a bug or disease.

Thank you for your responses.

Anne
