Need to be dusted? They've all got these lines in em. Is this edible?

Thanks.

I don't think that's bugs. I THINK that happens when they grow too fast. Kind of like stretch marks.

I used it once a week or so. But definitely not every day.

They are fine. I was always told that too much water does this but not sure if actually true. Alls I know is that they are fine to eat.

The cracking is a result of the tomatoes growing in quick spurts instead of gradually, or being on the vine too long. Dramatic changes in temperature, amount of water, or amount of exposure to sun all cause tomatoes to grow at different rates instead of growing at a gradual pace. This is very normal and they are still edible.
