Been growing them for years and never get megablooms on mine. They get HUGE but from a single bloom.

Many different varieties of tomato can produce megablossoms. The reason to grow Big Zac, and now its offspring, is that BZ produces lots of megablossoms, not just an occasional one. Delicious produces large blossoms too, but not as many as Big Zac. Growing a big tomato makes it necessary to go with the varieties that give you the most chances, ie the most megablossoms per plant.
