Tried planting the 'Big Zac' in both 2009 and 2010. They didn't do go either year. This year. my plant dried up and died, when it got to be over 100 F each day. They have been reported to have grown to 6 lbs.
That's one big matter you got there. Have you weighed it yet?

I don't have a scale but my best guess is 3 1/2 to 4 pounds.

LOL Thanks Rita. As far as seeds go I am not sure how they would turn out as I did not get around to bagging my blooms this year.However I still have a few seeds left of Big Zac that produced this monster and will be growing them again next year.
