# I’ve been harvesting my plum tomatoes but the ones I have plucked so…

_Posted by Raven on 2025-06-29_

I’ve been harvesting my plum tomatoes but the ones I have plucked so far look like this at the top. Is there a reason for this with the brown puckered skin on top? Are these no longer edible?

It’s worth noting it’s been VERY hot here the last few weeks, so I try to water my plants daily and fertilize them (directly on the soil) once a week.
