What’s the rules on the tomato’s being fused ? How much does a tomato need to be fused in order to qualify as an entry ?

Whoops found the answer to my question. [The entirety of the fruit flesh must be connected]. What a bummer , feel like I just lost a 1400 lbs pumpkin to a split . It is the canwixom cross ! 4lbs 15 oz . All about the kids now !

The skin needs to continuous to be ‘joined’. Can you pop a pic in the diary?

Pics can take a while to show up; but as Porkchop’s mentioned- connected is connected - if skin is continuous across the two segments, should be fine. A pic will help us see your concern tho, if you can get it to work.

This is why some need to be pulled apart to verify....always try to verify when young because it can be near impossible to tell when they are grown.

I had a blossom that never fused right. It got a rot spot, and is gone. Wish you well!
