Many gardeners have been puzzled by the sudden wilting and death of tomato plants. Possible causes of wilting include lack of water, vascular wilts, tomato spotted wilt virus, walnut toxicity, or stalk borers. Tomato plants require approximately 1 inch of water per week.
Other factors that can cause blossom end rot include extreme heat or cold, over fertilization, and low soil pH (acid soil).If you have tomatoes that have started to develop blossom end rot, remove them from the vine and compost them. They will not develop or ripen normally.
