Internal Browning of Tomatoes
Posted by David Alvarez (rdas001@hotmail.com) from florida on 2002-01-19 20:03:16

I have a greenhouse in which im growing an Israeli variety named ha3108,indeterminate salad tomatoe. The plant really looks healthy but the fruit comes up with two problems:
1)Its partially empty inside
2) Internal browning.

Questions:
1) Is one problem related to the other?
2) Whats causing the internal browning?

thanks for your help....

    The only information I can find is that this is caused by one or another of several pathogenic bacteria or fungi with no information available on how to control it or how to prevent it.

        I've looked around but all the references I've dug in simply state various bacteria and fungi. Have you talked with your FSU Extension Services horticulturist yet?
