Nice job Johnny. The Boudyo is in the Big Zac line. What is the 2.62 Leonzi heritage? Big Zac, Delicious,etc?

I didn't realize that I had the top 4 GPC tomatoes in Kentucky...lol. I had a larger one last year but didn't take the time to do the early entry....as stated by Johnny, not user friendly.

Great job on those! 4 & 5 pounders are hard to come by. If your entries are accepted by the GPC, you have the record. I don't know of any other club or website that tracks Kentucky State records. The club in Indiana has a list of some fruit/veggies from Kentucky but it mirrors the GPC's results as submitted by John VanHook. I tried to get them to list my 3.50 a few years ago but my request wasn't honored. Last time I looked at that site, the tomato record was vacant. Congrats!

Just saw your diary entries and that is THE way to do it! Tape around fruit, fruit on scale AND weight in the same image, picture of scale certification as well as blossom end of fruit...perfect!
