Does anyone have this book? I want to read it and I was thinking someone here might have it. I don't want to buy it because I'm the person that will just read a book once and then put it on the shelf to collect dust lol.

I believe that most serious growers of giant tomatoes have this book including me. The book is not the type to read and place on a shelf. Marv's book is truly the only definitive guide to growing giant tomatoes. I use it as a reference and have highlighted in it, dog eared the pages and have taken it outside to my planting area with me.

If you want to grow a giant tomato then Marv's book must be used as a guide and a template in which to model your own growing techniques around.

I treat it like I treat the Bible because after all it is the bible of growing giant tomatoes.

Go here; http://www.amazon.com/Giant-Tomatoes-Marvin-Meisner-ebook/dp/B007371RSM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1399047467&sr=8-1&keywords=marv+meisner

Spend as little as 11.59 for a used copy plus shipping.

We here can all give you pointers and get you where you need to begin but the complexities of giant growing require you to have Marv's book in hand and read many times.

Don't wait, go order.

@ Westham

Are you going to take that Kindle into the garden with you and risk it getting dirty and wet?

Try Better world books, they sell used books online , I have bought lots of books in great new cond. at a fraction of the retail price. The stock is always changing, they also list books from other sellers ,but their prices can be out to lunch. good luck...Terry

I cannot tell you how honored I am by how much people like my book. It was because of Minnie Z that I ever took it on as a project. There just was nothing out there to help tomato growers go for big. Also the giant growers here on the Tomato Growing Forum helped. What will make me even happier is if someone can break Gordon Graham's record. And happiest of all will be if it is me. lol

Marv, it was your book that helped me get to my personal best of 4.46 LBS. It will also get me to 5.00 LBS and beyond.

I voice what I'm certain is everyone's sentiment when I say thank you for writing it!!!
