Porkchop, I am not the authority that some of the others are here. But I recommend you pick it tomorrow. Check your weather forecast for tonight and tomorrow. If you get an inch of rain that monster will pop a crack so quickly your head will spin. Realistically it is not going to gain a significant amount of weight by waiting until Saturday.

The theory is there's more juice and a ripe tomato so they weigh heavier... Also they can grow up to 1 inch or more during the ripening process

Congtatulations Porkchop. Not a World Record but still the biggest so far this year. There has been one eight pounder in each of 2014,2015,2016 and now yours in 2017. Maybe next year there can be two. Your final multiplier factor comes out to .00045. Must have the Domingo factor.
