Framac My guess is that the problem is seed related and you have an off type plant. Some heirlooms have that sort of coloration on them perhaps some off type pollen got into the flower when pollinating. That stuff happens. They may be superior, who knows. They certainly look nice and prolific.

I just saw your diary. That is most likely a virus. Not sure which one.

Is the new growth on the plant, distorted or strange looking?

Growth looked fine. A few fruit on one plant exhibited this patern. Removed this plant and not canning its yield either.

It does kind of look cool but its not normal. I will rotate my crops around next year also. Apart from this viral anomaly my tomatoes are heavy with fruit
Heavy pruning of side suckers realy helps for big yields.
