It's going great! I've never seen anything like it before. Photo in my diary that is not updated yet. The bottom tomato over 20" is turning red. The remainder 10 should follow suit soon. They are 15-16". One other of the 6.66's did the same thing. There are only 5 but the truss cannot hold the weight. I'm holding it up with a log. Learned that trick from Porkchop. Anyway, so out of 17 Big Marley F2's from the 6.66, two plants are doing this. I will take seeds from them and plant again. I would think later this week I will pick the whole truss. It'll take a few hands. Then weigh the whole thing. I'm hoping for over 20 lbs. Then lay the whole thing out and take photo's. Pretty cool for me.

Looks like a beauty on the Jurassic. I would pull the unfused ding-a-lingers off and see how nice it can push the remaining piece? Pretty cool garden. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, the Jurassic is interesting. I sprayed a hormone on the blossom. I do have another growing on the same Big Wixom plant. I had scissors on it last week but chose to keep it once I saw the Jurassic splitting apart.
