My tomatoes-Oregon spring, are ripening when they are tiny and have like clear spots on the bottoms and holes in the top sides ( I thought birds were pecking them) I also noticed a pepper that I am growing has the same rotten bottom! The tomatoes are being grown in pots and the pepper in a hydroponics system ( homemade) There are a LOT of white flies on them, I keep vacuuming them off but it is a losing battle. I water the plants every day. I am losing hope of having fresh veggies- so much hard work for nothing!
