black spots on tomatoes and peppers

[clairey92]

Any ideas as to why I have black spots on my tomatoes (on the actual fruit), also on my peppers, which seems to start on the stem bit where it grows into the fruit?

There is a bacterial disease that effects both tomatoes and peppers,which is as you describe. if it is this, I don't think there is any cure once established and you should remove plants and not compost them. Doesn't really sound like blight which can effect tomatoes, or blossom end rot, where the end of the fruit rots. Sorry to be so negative. H.
