Going to agree with the other posts here, I experienced the same thing on my first wave this year. We had an abnormally wet early summer and nothing in my garden was a fan. Sometimes, shit just happens.

We had a two week period of no rain and brutal heat. Plants looked great but any fruit from that time had end rot. It's just tomatoes being fair weather. Top dress with some added bone meal and keep your water schedule rigid.

We dried out after the first wave set on, and I was able to correct the issue before the second blossoms set on.
