            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | I read that it's somewhat a nutrition issue, but now I forget what the recommendation was. | 8/17/2020 4:04:17 PM | 
		
            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | That's not really catfacing right? Catfacing is the blossom scar on the bottom.  The video that mentioned it was 'advancing eco agriculture' they are lengthy and somewhat scientific videos and I dont remember which video it was. | 8/17/2020 4:08:54 PM | 
		
            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | Not exactly the same issue but maybe it's related.  http://bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=319290
 I think the cracks get worse with variable moisture on the tomato and maybe some sun scald.  Dry and shaded should reduce it???  Good luck.
