made a mistake on pappy 7 days ago and put the wrong final ott but the right estimated weight. 7 days ago it was estimated at 833 lbs and 7.5 days later it is estimated tonight on day 58 at 159.5-99-97 = 355.5 ott or 942 lbs and still averaging 14.5 per day the last 7.5 days and staying steady which is very cool. if and when she gets to 1000 lb estimate, it will be the first time a Shenoha seed hit 1000 lb estimate or better. she is thumping like a rock like her 20 percent heavy momma and figure she is already at 1000 if it hit the scale and then some. getting gnarley looking with more cantaloping and bulging. i will get a pic on day 60. my last big chance at a personal best tomato split and rotted on the underside fusing point and is done. so the tomatoes are pretty well done with the stragglers very small and on late sucker shoots. was still a very good year with the 2 big'ns posted already and am looking forward to trying again last year. nothing like the thrill of the weigh off and walking into the butchers with a smile on your fice ear to ear and everyone asking what is it and can't believe they are tomatoes at first. 2 tomatoes at 20" circ was not to shabby and should be enough to win the bobby's tap tomato contest and 50 bucks. never know though a couple friends still with potential and having a blast trying their hand at monster gardening.
