: Hi, I'm in victoria australia and I'm growing my first lot of roma tomatoes. Today I picked two lovely red tomatoes, my first to ripen and when I cut into them they appeared sort of mouldy looking inside near the bottom.

Sounds very much like Blossom end rot, which roma's are particularly prone to. IMO there is little that can be done. It should reduce as season progress'.
