Hi,

I have had a problem this year with my Tomatos splitting, can anyone
explain why this has been happening.

Thanks.

H.

Usually the result of a lack of water followed by too much IMO.

Yes and some varieties seem much mre prone to this than others. Sungold
which is excellent, I find, in every other way, splits a lot. Sometimes,
if they're OK when you pick them they have split a few hours later.
