Best Answer

It all depends where you put them and whether the tomatoes are ripe or green. Generally, you can keep them in the fridge for a couple of weeks without problem.

ANS 2 - When you store tomatoes, mushrooms or green beans in the fridge, be SURE to remove them from polythene bags. These make them go off faster. Place them in brown papre bags for even the shortest storage.

The tomato would rot faster in warm water because, when you put a tomato in cold temperature ex: refrigerator the tomato does not rot and it stays good for a long period of time, now if you put the tomato in warm temperature or room temperature for instance, the tomato has more chance of rotting than in cold temperature so the tomato rots faster in warm water.

What causes tomatoes to rot on bottom?

It is called Blossom End Rot, and it has plagued tomato growers forever. It is not completely understood, but it seems to be exacerbated by not enough calcium in the soil, and uneven watering. Putting a light scattering of lime in the tomato bed when you prepare it in the spring, keeping the water content of the soil even, and mulching the plants all lessen your chances of getting it. But nothing guarantees you wont get it. That's what I meant by "not completely understood".
