Yep. It’s a combo of inconsistent watering and the heat. Don’t take it personally; it happens to us all. And even IF you water consistently, some varieties are more likely to get it than others.

It’s not a disease and they are perfectly fine to eat. :)

Naa. Been some crazy weather this year with heavy rains in between short 100 degree heat waves.

Can't complain. Five months into it, I have plants started from seed that are still putting out fruit and haven't lost much. I've got about 40 cherry and a dozen bigger organically grown tomatoes sitting here ripe or close to it. I'll probably be getting tomatoes until frost gets the plants. Plants will be 7-8 months old by then. Couple of mater plants are yellowing so I'll give them a little fertigation this evening.

Got to see some interesting growth too. LOL

Blame it on the weather.
