Full of air

Something didn't seem quite right with the Domingo that I weighed last Thursday. In addition to looking funky, it felt light for its size. The Zaczilla that I weighed today was much smaller than the Domingo, but only weighed a couple of ounces less.

Tonight, I cut up the Domingo to remove its seeds. The seed pockets were hollow! And some of them had mold growing in them, like outside air was able to enter, perhaps through cracks around the stem. So there was definitely something strange going on with that tomato. Perhaps too little water? Now I understand why the raccoon that started eating it left the rest.
