Last weeks heat ripened 4 of my tomatoes, and created a nice mess of other issues in the patch. The Good news is all 4 made the 4 pound mark with this one being the biggest at 4.24 grown off the 7.10 Foss. Thanks Bill for the seed.

I had high hopes for this 6.88 Maccoy but once again it ripened early. This one grew on a plant that was 16 inches tall and the tomato has been sitting on the ground the last two weeks.

4.68 was the weight. It was 23.25 inches no matter what way you measured it which is why I had high hopes for it. Few more 6.88's left yet.

My 1781 Zywiec x 1724 Steil developed a soft spot on the bottom while I was out Elk Hunting. Circumference 217 inches, 452 OTT, estimated 1805, Actual weight 1949. Today is Day 75 but it hasn't really grown since my son found the spot where the soil met the pumpkin day 71. Plant and vine were still in perfect shape.
