Darin,it's known that there are more than one variety named Brutus, so here's a thread I remembered where Lubadub, Marv Meissner,the person who wrote the book on how to grow BIG ones and do it the right way.

And you also posted in the above one already, which I will say surprised me since you started a new thread just just for Brutus.
In the above link Marv arrives in post 39, then in post #50, more than one Brutus is mentioned, then in post 108 I list the FOUR Brutuses,if you will, that I had.
If anyone else here is interested in growing BIG ones,as the original thread was devoted to,it's a long thread, but IMO worth the time.
Hope that helps,
Carolyn
