A little less appetizing. This one stopped growing and sure enough it's got a problem. It's hard life is over @ 2.3 lbs it certainly didn't pack on the weight. The stem healed somewhat where I split it but fusarium or something into the tomato. I think in the future... keep very dry, and possibly a fan on any big ones... and much lighter sulfer dusting, if any. All the effort here was disastrous except the stem splitting. Sometimes they will split naturally but other times it would be good to assist so that the stem doesnt pull away from a portion. The internal cracking was a bit too much here. But the stem didn't pull away from either side. Hmm... Interesting....
