giant tomatoe.

I picked a giant tomatoe today. It was a volunteer from a variety called "pineapple". Its kind of ugly, its yellow, green, and red. It grew all by itself without any of my attention- makes me feel like I'm not really helping the plants. I think, "If only I could grow tomatoes that big". No, I don't have a question.

How big is it exactly? And why did you pick it if it's still partially green?

The diameter is a bit bigger than of a cd, It's bigger so a cd is not a good example, but it's the only round thing I could think of thats only one size. The variety is "pineapple" which always makes tri-colored tomatoes. No one will eat but its nice to look at I guess.
