| I've had the silver fir tomato plant indoor under a grow light for three months and now there's a hole in one of the tomatoes! Is it a worm? Should I cut off the tomato? Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

| Doesn't look like insect damage to me. More like two tomatoes fused together or some kind of anomoly like cat facing. Nothing to be concerned about, in my opinion. |

| Lots of things can cause holes and are seldom a cause for concern. The "perfect" tomato is rare. :-) Dave |

| Let it get ripe, if it stills bothers you, just cut around it and eat the rest. Growing indoors, it would be very unlikely to be a worm. The picture is not closeup enough to really see if it is a fresh cut or an natural dry open growth thing. |
