Tendencies to split

 I watered w/miracle grow last night and this morning I have a squash split 
wide open.The split is 2 inches off the blossom end and perpendicular to the 
way the ribs will eventually run...(kinda like a golfball hit once by me).The 
fruit was honeydue sized .I did not water excessively(or so I 
think/thought).Temperatures are warm here with high humidity..low 90's this 
afternoon.   I never had a fruit split...didn't expect this..at  least not 
this early and w/such little watering last night.I am quite concerned.Is this 
something I can expect on all of the fruit or more likely a fluke...does this 
sound like a problem plant?What can I do to avoid this in the future? This 
was a side vine fruit on the left side of the plant...have 5 other fruits set 
on side vines on the opposite side -no problems with them (yet)....this may 
be a strong candidate for shock absorber pumpkins........HELP ME 
PLEASE.....GlennA
