            | huffspumpkins | canal winchester ohio | Measure the circumference and use this. It is close enough to give you a good idea of what it weighs.
 20"-- 3#
 21"-- 3.5#
 22"-- 4#
 23"-- 4.5#
 24"-- 5#
 25"-- 5.5#
 26"-- 6#
 27"-- 6.5#
 28"-- 7#

            | PA_J | Allentown, PA | Yardman,
 Take a measuring tape and measure the circumference of the tomato.
 
 Post the measurement here and I'll look it up for you.
