               Thanks to Porkchop and Dan for organizing another fun contest. Out of 66 contestants 30 had new personal bests! Who knows where this will put giant tomato growing 5 years down the road.

               Out of 9 draft teams, 5 of them had 6 tomato totals over 20 pounds. For those in the draft that entered a tomato the average weight was 3.66 pounds.

               I benefitted greatly from participating.  Back in May when things seemed hopeless I would have thrown in the towel except "i couldnt let my team down."  Even when I'd lost all hope for anything good, I still had to try... for something.  
  Just had to chime in & say my good season was because of my team.

               1st time doing something like this and I will definitely be back next year. I achieved my life bucket list for a tomato.  Don't look but I have a new item on my bucket list. Bigger Bigger Bigger. This was fantastic. Thank you Porkchop and Dan

               Late to see this, but thanks for organizing! Enjoyed growing Maters more than I expected! Also thanks to the growers that have donated seeds to WGPG that I used that helped this rookie get into the contest and be half-way competitive.
