Between the heatwave and deer, some varieties never made it to my mouth.
I just took a cutting from Stellar to try to clone it for indoor winter fun.
One thing I have to say,no aphids or other pests this season.
Usually this time of year I end up bringing pests into the house.

Guido was my largest this year, in late August. I couldn't find the backup batteries for my scale in time so I don't know how much it weighed. 6" across.

The rest on the plant do look like SGT peppers. This one just happened to look different and the shoulder were just beginning to turn dark.

So, a multi-blossom and the fruit was mostly shaded? I think my typical SP was a dark shouldered heart of about 8 ounces.

Yep. It was nicely nestled under all its buddies and had basically just turned.

MissS.......Yes 2020 was a good year for me. I also had a German Head fruit that weighed in at 30.13 ounces and a SOTW at 30.88 ounces. Rosovye Krupnye produced 4 fruits that weighed at least 30 ounces. A very good year it was indeed !

I should have mentioned that my tomatoes are all grown in 15 gal. grow bags.
