Tomato experts - what am I doing wrong please?

[waltzingparrot]

By the time they are orange enough to pick, they're split like this. What have I done wrong please?

Watered them too infrequently and then overwatered when you did.

I think!

It’s usually to do with inconsistent watering and the tomatoes being left to get too dry.
We water every day and use an automatic watering system if we’re away.

Guilty! But I thought the rain was doing it when I wasn't.

I watered mine regularly @waltzingparrot but then this last week of nonstop rain has caused the current ripeners to split. I've found picking them when they just start to yellow helps. I then ripen them on a windowsill. Some still split but others are perfectly fine.

@Rookiegardener Thanks for that tip. Hopefully I'll salvage a few.
