Are you asking for the cause of black rot? A general supplement is best, if that is what you are asking.

Blossom end rot is a calcium deficiency, Epsom salts are magnesium, not calcium. They may add some nutrient but not calcium. Try gypsum.

Black rot can also be caused by uneven watering.

And poor brushing habits.
