Pretty impressive seeing top 10 GPC tomatoes all from Ontario....and 13 of top 16. Hats off.

No doubt!
Those Timm's can really grow some BIIIG Tomatoes.
I'm curious though. Are those the largest tomatoes they have grown this season? Since we aren't able to time when a fruit ripens for weigh-off as we can with pumpkins, how many larger tomatoes were grown that they weren't able to officially record at a weigh-off?
I normally get my largest tomatoes late in the season, I believe the cooler nights help to extend the period of fruit growth and maturity. Not taking anything away from the effort these growers put into their tomato gardens, they are incredible and consistant growers.
