Too hot and/or too little water.

Too cold? My experience has always been outdoor ones have tougher skins (to
keep them warmer!). What variety do you grow?

I have had problems with 'Moneymaker', not otherwise.

I wouldn't wory about the skins, it's the flavour that matters, I've
found over the years that the tomatoes with the best flavour often
have tough skins.
