Cranky...as Tplant mentioned we all have BER problems, for me only regular & plum
varieties and never with cherry or grape tomatoes. That Espoma garden lime is the same that I use and it is dolomite. This year for the first time I am treating all my plants with Messenger every 3 weeks and for the first time I have no BER on all my plants both in EB's and in the ground, not one tomato. As for the cucumbers, you must have had some kind of major problem because they grow beautifully in EB's. If you had 4 healthy plants in each of your EB's they would take a full fill-up at least once per day. The pic is of my 3 EB's (12 plants total) and I am watering them twice per day at this point.
