Karl's Big Boys

Now it's Karl's turn. On Sunday, 9/12, Karl brought in two Big Boy tomatoes for weigh-in. The first one had a girth of 13-3/4 and looked like a perfect tomato with hardly any blemish and symetrical all around, and it weighed 19.2 ounces, outweighing Pam's leading Brandy Wine by 0.4 ounces.

The second Big Boy, not as pretty, it looked like a mutant of at least two tomatoes and it beat Karl's first Big Boy. This one weighed 19.8 ounces with a girth of 14-5/8 inches, and now takes the lead!



Congratulations to Karl. But we have at least two more months before this competition ends. I think I will have to put more manure in my garden.
