[edit]Okay, the pictures in the .pdf for "cat-facing" are actually blosson end rot on tomatoes, caused by calcium deficiency, fruit rot, and scarring. I have always been under the impression that "cat-facing" is the dimpling that looks like cat fur on cat cheeks, you know, the dimples where their whiskers are, or when fruit looks like the skin is "pinched." As a farm boy from Kansas, who has also seen the phrase used this way in Maryland and Pennsylvania, I'm *extremely* dubious about the blossom end rot picture on the AVRDC flyer...

Herbicide effect?
[edit]No citation for the herbicide claim, and I haven't found any solid evidence for it. 2001:8003:E085:B500:EC57:8E3B:DC5C:32F (talk) 13:01, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
