It sounds like blossom end rot to me. Blossom end rot is caused by the
tomato's not receiving enough calcium when it is growing. This is affected
by irregular rainfall but can happen even with regular rains, and has
nothing to do with being on the ground.

Can anybody tell me why my tomatoes are starting to get slightly
sunken soft spots on the blossom end of green fruit with small brown
spots in them? I dont think that this is blossom end rot and the
tomatoes arent on the ground. It has rained several times the last
couple weeks.
