This is for a single circumference not 3-way. I have problems just getting one measurement much less three lol. I found this formula in the old posts on here. SEAMSFASTER developed it. I took the formula and entered the tomato weight in 1/2" increments.
This is a bit more accurate than the chart everyone links from marvs book. It has served me well and figure others would find it useful. Most tomatoes come in +or- 10% of this
17 1.92
17 1/2 2.05
18 2.12
18 1/2 2.36
19 2.53
20 2.89
20 1/2 3.09
21 3.29
21 1/2 3.51
22 3.74
22 1/2 3.97
23 4.22
23 1/2 4.47
24 4.74
24 1/2 5.01
25 5.30
25 1/2 5.59
26 5.89
26 1/2 6.20
27 6.53
27 1/2 6.86
28 7.20
W = 2.9221 – (0.3876X23.9) + (0.0193X23.9X23.9)

Although the density multiple changes per grower and their individual conditions, it’s probably worth separating variety for generic chart for main varieties e.g Big Zac vs Domingo.
With me here a Domingo will always weight light vs a Big Zac for same measurements. Others the same?
