Hey Biscuit- I never did have any megablooms on this plant, but with a triple or quad, this would be a strong candidate for a really heavy one. I'll weigh it tomorrow in the lab!! Thanks!

Here are a few pictures of the ripe and cut fruit. Very meaty, almost no seeds! Flavor was exceptional, not tart. Plant is vigorous and very disease resistant so far....
One of the fruit I am naming "Goat Butt" for obvious reasons ![]() |

Those little bulbous green bubbles sticking out all around? Those are parts of the fused stigma that did not swell to their potential. It doesn't matter, it looks like you got 5 or more full fused fruit there, and got a great result! It is almost impossible to fully pollinate a megabloom like that. Congrats!! What was the weight?
