Last summer my greenhouse grown tomatoes had a hard white core, any help to prevent this happening again would be appreciated.

Maybe it was the variety.
I grew Akron for the 1st time last year. Slightly larger than a Shirley, but all of them had a hard core. Grown alongside were Suncherry, Sungold, Shirley and Rosella - none of them had hard cores

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
That's an interesting link, Pansy! What struck me was that it says "Newer hybrids that feature meatier centers are more resistant." I strongly dislike tomatoes with meatier centres, and I had no idea they were specifically bred to be that way. I mean, what's the point of a tomato if it's not as juicy as can be?
