Hummm ... Some varieties have a thin skin and this happens when the finger is turning ripe. But I don't think this is a problem with the GM. .... So may be the rains have accelerated the finger growth causing the splits. The bunches needed to have been harvested as soon as the fingers had obtained their popper size. Delayed harvesting and the rains seems to have caused this.

Ask around and your local Ag Agent for advice.
