It will be much later in the summer for green tomatoes going red here - zone 5. No pounds of fruit yet. The splitting/scabbing can happen in July/Aug just before ripening.
Ah ok. Still. Im a bit jealous ;) But I am glad to read that you're plants are doing well.
I have some indoor cherry tomatoes still in the hydro setup that are just getting past the flowering stage so I am really looking forward to picking some fruit soon.
... I didn't plant this year, but have seen the results from my many past plantings and weird weather since I was old enough to pay attention helping my dad. Too much rain, sun, clouds, not enough rain, sun, clouds, early frost, late frost ... etc. Cutworms, leaf mold, low nitrogen, high nitrogen, acid soil ,,,
BTW, OP says "it's almost July" in the post. Is he off by a month or talking about fantasy future results ?
Strange. This just looks like a typical cycle from where I am. Yeah, its been about 15-20 years but this is Normal for where I am from.
[edit] I think they are forecasting their possible results. Fairly common if you grow yearly and have diverse crops.
