Default White spots on tomatoes

Does anyone know what causes the white spots to appear on my tomatoes? I
have been told that it is because of too much watering, others think it is
the weather.

Thanks in advance.

Dwayne

Stink bugs feeding...guessing other plant bugs too, will cause a cloudy
white spot just under the skin.

I tried to attach a file that shows pictures of every conceivable tomato problem but it wouldn't take it. I don't know the URL of the site that I found it on but I know that I had "Googled" for "end rot" or "blossom end rot". The picture that looks most like what you're describing was of tobacco mosaic infection.

I couldn't find the site that I wanted but here is one that might be even better: http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/t...ver/index.html

You'll see five choices for the part of the plant that has the problem. Click on "ripe tomatoes" and you'll be shown some tomatoes. Click on them and you'll be shown larger views. Click on them and eventually you'll be shown a possible cause, etc.
