SPLITTING: Splitting or cracking of fruits and vegetables usually occurs from erratic growing conditions. This is either due to change in water stress, temperature fluctuation, and or sudden rainfall. If caught early, the fruit can be consumed but splitting fruits is more prone to diseases.
We are experiencing the tail end of the tropical storm and we had several hours of continuous rain. We still have some figs left on the fruit tree, so we will consume these as it ripens and we cannot wait for the taste.
