Stink bugs are so annoying!

I've been told to try mix dish detergent and water in a spray bottle to keep bugs off of your plants.

Also diatomaceous earth is a wonder.

it's "food safe" if its basic Dawn, so I suppose the answer is "on all the things", or, "everything, everywhere at once". DE is also food safe, but thats a solid (will look like sand), so you sprinkle it all around the area.

Our chickens will be happy with this one! Any specific reason? Or one of those it happens things?

At least your chickens will enjoy it! It could be blossom end rot, which can be caused by calcium deficiency and exacerbated by an erratic watering schedule. I've not encountered it myself yet, but the picture looks similar to the ones I've seen.

I was actually wondering if was drought/watering related.

We had some tomatoes last year that got hard and brown on the tip of the fruit (hey, it is a fruit). It looked properly rotten instead of hard, so that threw me off a bit
