maybe we should set up a tomato chat time. It was fun chatting with all the tomato growers during the team drawings.

Hey, how picky should we the people be with scales. Each person's official (2) tomato's? Meaning tomatoes weighed on an official scale vs some home scale? I would prefer a cert. scale. Thoughts?

i would think that the weights for this competition should be official gpc. I allow home weights for winter..but their is no prize fund involved. This one should require certified weights.

I think they all need to be on a certified scale and posted on the gpc board !!!

My home scale is certified Garden Rebel...but to get official GPC results, I still have to take it to where I can get impartial witnesses. My favorite place is to take it to one of the local grow stores. The employees really appreciate giant vegetables as compared to the local supermarket.

I manage a grocery store and I would welcome anyone to come in and weight a huge tomato. Don't see why any grocery would ever refuse, unless they got attitude problems.
