Very ugly but healing.
The original problem that caused the blossom end rot should be corrected or the tomato will continue to struggle to grow well. But if the problem is fixed then hopefully it will get big & make it to a weigh off. The gpc rules dont seem to preclude a tomato like this, as with a pumpkin the damage can be large as long as it has healed and the chemicals have been removed.
But this is new territory so take all of this with a grain of, well, sulfer...
The recipe here was 50/50 sulfer powder (used for roses, etc) and calcium hydroxide (used for masonry) plus about 0.1 % boron. I have nothing to verify that this is a good or safe thing to use so don't really consider this to be a recommendation. But if you are smart enough to understand any risks, then you can certainly do your own experiments.
