Wow , you have a super monster going Porkchop. 29 x 27 x 27 x .00055 = 11.62 est weight. Might be time to look at alternative verification sources if the gpc falls on this one.

I've said for a few years that if you could grow a 6lb domingo it would be as "big" as the world record...I mean, I go by inches anyway and it's Waaaaay bigger than qtips 7.07...

I think you meed to do a bauman farm weighoff. Get a gpc rep to witness you cutting it off. Get an official world record weight and then fly to minnesota and let the prize fund pay for your chance to meet us goofballs in person. Wonderimg if this scenary of early weight and fall weighoff only works one time?

Don't worry chris , if Porkchop brings his big one to Gale Woods I will make sure the parent seed is spelled correctly. You can still come...second place still covers your air cost.

I bet that his tomato will not go light. Mine went to scale and so will porkies.

That tomato is growing 1/4" a day gaining 1/2 pound every 4 days or near 1 pound in a week.

Porkchop, it looks like you will be the one to beat for a long time to come. I hope the density of the tomato is such that it does not weigh light. Pick it early in the morning before it gets too hot and water starts to leave the tomato. Make sure the soil is moist the night before you pick it. Remember who gave you these tips when I send you a SASE. Go Porkchop. Do it.

Will do marv... They do go very light ...I would be shocked to see 7lbs again...but who cares, it measures bigger than qtips...

Yes, head to Bauman's in Oregon on Oct. 7th. It would be great to meet you. Many of the "legends" are there. That would mean I would only get 2nd though:)

I'm guessing 7.71.

Cool,I didn't realize that Bauman's was the same date as Gale Woods. We should start a top average for the weighoff sites. I hope you have some big ones out there too.
