        You're beating me Zigs, mine are pea size and stalled - lots of leaf & stem growth but the fruit don't seem to be swelling.

                        Loli I don't see any supports to take the weight of those toms, it would be a shame if the weight of them caused a stem to snap/split before they're fully grown.

                          342 g & 32cm girth, although its a lumpy thing. Managed to damage it getting it off the plant...

                          Coming along I have this one:
                          [​IMG]
