I never grown giant tomatoes before. but I'm trying two plants in my tomatoe bed. How do you estimate weight? Is there a chart? Do you just take circ. measurements to see which one is growing fastest?

There is a chart in marvin H. Meisner book "Giant Tomatoes" Page 77 This is a very good book on growing giant tomatoes. Here a link on the book shop around for best price. http://www.amazon.com/Giant-Tomatoes-Marvin-Meisner-M-D/dp/0975515314

15" = 1 lb
16" = 1.5 lb
17" = 1.5 to 2 lb
