why are my tomatoes wooly? - what I mean is they look beautiful but when you eat them they are a bit like cotton wool! is it too much water? not enough water? no feed?

My OH swears that this is because they are modern tomatoes - not the same as in 1955!

Try growing a different variety next year - Marmande are good; big tomatoes with lots of flesh but little seed.

My guess would be erratic watering, and not enough liquid potassium feed ("Tomorite" or other brand), as you query, yourself..
