Looks Like Catfacing to me.  It can be much worse, throw dat one away Jeanette.   In some cases, the fruit itself is misshapen, becoming kidney-shaped or otherwise distorted. This happens when any one of these happens, and usually to the larger variety of tomatoes. *Temperatures drop below 50 degrees F during flowering and fruit set, resulting in poor pollination. *Excess heat, *Erratic soil moisture *High nitrogen has also been shown to aggravate this disorder. *Too many CATS!!  (not really, just a yankin' yer chain Gurl!) |
