Default OMG!!! 1lb12.8oz BeefSteak

These are so fun to grow, they are not normally the best eaters but amazing how they produce. I'm sure most of you have grown some this big before but just wanted to share my biggest one so far this season. I actually had rouble getting it out from between the vine and the cage and dinged it up a little.

If you ever get a 5-lb one, you better have an ambulance ready

I know.....8) I actually sliced her up tonight, she was pretty darn tasty. Better than some of the bigger ones I've grown in the past.
