So these are pretty close to my last fruit from my King Kong plant for 2022, all over 2 lbs.

@Yak54 That plant sure produces some big tomatoes. It keeps pumping them out and they are not getting any smaller. Nice plant.

Thanks Patti and Mark. There is only a couple fruit left and I'll probably take the plant down in a week. but yes it produced 7 tomatoes that weighed in at slightly more than 2 lbs. But it is a disappointment as far as taste goes. Not up to my best tasting varieties so I probably won't grow it again.

@MissS Are there any pictures with a person holding it? Hard to tell how truly massive that is.

@Mark_Thompson No there aren't. This was the only picture of it. He does say in another thread that it was 39" around.

I admit to being kind of a dork -- I actually got out a tape measure and created a 39" circle to get an idea of how big that tomato must be. Wow. And for comparison, a regulation NBA basketball is 29.5" in circumference.

I wear size 36 pants, so three inches bigger than my waist. Totally ridiculous
