Had it myself over the years google blossom end rot it will give you loads of preventative measures that will come in useful if you grow them again next year.

[gnipper 6,504]

I'm gonna set up drip irrigation next year, I think mine have got it from being watered a load in one or two goes rather than steadily throughout the day especially with the hot weather we've had recently?

[terryd 8,522]

Mine have got that too gnipper same as you been dousing them with bucket of water when I get home and they bone dry all day. In hind site a good mulch according to google would be good option. Had a blight alert for my postcode anyway now

Spuds are in the bag so good job they got in early

Handy site this one http://www.blightwatch.co.uk/content/bw-Home.asp

They text you for free to let you know when there is a Smith Period in your area

We have all the drippers and pipes etc at work to rig up the irrigation I just need to sort out a tank, that could be filled with the gutters off my shed too.

The tassels on my corn have just started to droop with the weight of the pollen I'll help with the pollination aswell when the hairs come out on the ears. Hopefully be getting some corn in about 2 weeks.

 

The ears are developing nicely.......I think.

Still plenty of healthy looking ones on the plants so hopefully they stay healthy.
