Default Tomato Question

said:


I have a few tomatoes that have "crackeled" skin. What would cause
this? Is doesn't seem to bother the inside. I just can't figure out
what could cause it.


OK, as you mentioned these were hydroponic, strike the uneven
water supply.

Was the cracked tomato more sun exposed? Sunscald or damage
due to uneven heating might explain what happened.
