Ready to plant. First time with high-tunnel. Used mostly from when I grew the pumpkins. Came in handy enough to make a sturdy enough shelter and protection for the plants.

I've grown three tomatoes over 4 lbs. One 4.06 BER Big Zac, another 4.12 mouse MegaMarv chewing underside as it was really low to the ground and One was 4.3 lbs. "Canadian Giant" in 2005. It gets hot in Zone 6b-7a, using shade cloth on 85+ degree days, which are most to 90s when not cloudy.
The fruit grow so far and the heat gets them to slow and quit.
This fruit was real close to another 4 lber. Love growing these fruit!!

This is a cull..lol..due to one passing up this one, still green. I know not to let two grow on the same plant (grower rule understood) but for most of the time they grew very well together. Maybe there's still hope to break my PB 4.3. The one pictured here is 3 lbs. 9.7 ozs. or 3.61 Big Zac
