What sort of weight increases do you see in the first 10 days of fruit set. I have a couple set that look the business. But this is an untested cultivar so I haven't got anything to compare against. what should I be looking for?

It depends on the heat ? If you have 85-90 temps you can get 1" circumstance for the first 10 days. But if it is 75° in th e day and 50s at night you will probably be 1/2 to 3/4" per day ?

haha Porkchop. Wixom Low to mid 70s to mid to high 50s for the next 3 or so weeks. my first two fruit are about 6 or 7 days set roughly. two look ok and are getting plump quick. the temps should keep them growing a little longer, I find that normal tomatoes ripen too fast here in the heat.
