If you mean they went brown at one end that is calcium deficiency. If so, just google blossom end rot.

Would be surprised if it was potassium deficiency as you fed comfrey regularly and that's got more potassium than nitrogen.

you still haven't said in what way 'bad' it might have been blight which is a fungal infection and considering how wet it has been at times it could well be that.
