    Thanks for all of the tips, Justin! The minute I heard you speak, I knew where you were from :-) I'm local as well; we affectionally call the clay soil "south Wake County concrete". I grew up with my dad growing tomato plants over 14' tall. He was an avid gardener and grew enough food for the state and gave most of it away; he never sold anything. He just loved working in his garden. BLTs are my favorite part of summer...with Duke's mayo of course :-). I will certainly keep watching.

    Cheap source of Ca that I use is Tums! Grab some out of your medicine cabinet, dissolve a handful in 1.5-2 gallons of water, and add it to your plants! Worked great on mine last year when I noticed end rot happening. Saw that tip on another site.

      Thank you! Please tell me what banana skins or garlic greens have that can help? I think I'm fine on nitrogen...

    When you plant tomatoes, in the planting hole add a fish like a bream, a couple handfuls of pulverized bone meal, a handful of blood meal and a couple heaping tablespoons of epsom salt all mixed with a little compost, then plant the tomato in the hole and back fill with compost. Water in very well and never let the soil dry out to keep the nutrients flowing through the plant into the fruit. Doing all of the above keeps the plant healthy, thriving, producing heavily with no blossom end rot.

    Gypsum is another form of calcium that will neutralize the soil pH for acid soils. I have a living fence posts of firs and pines I almost killed using dolomite lime. A horticulture friend taught me this. I dig it in before the ground freezes in the fall.

    Luv this guy's videos. First year gardener here. Build 2 raised beds. I have a question if someone can help me. Planted better boy tomatoes and I'm noticing those that are ripening are splitting at the top. Any advice and why they're doing this? Thanks tubers

    I’ve been pruning like you’ve taught. My question is do I remove the pruned bits or leave to decompose beneath the plants for extra nitrogen. Will this cause too much moisture?

    Actually it was exactly extremely helpful! It's not the fruit, it's the flowers & it happened after I put fish emulsion. I also heard tomatoes can handle heat & not to overwater. I didn't always water & not always equally. I need Phosphorus & calcium that can quickly dissolve. What #'s do I look for?

    Garden lime can change the ph of the soil and that could be a potential disaster.

      That is the goal. We have very acidic soil here in North Carolina. :) Lime is great at raising the ph.
