Stable for size maybe IF size was the only genetic characteristic that was important and if most of the fruit on the vine was of similar size and weight. One fruit of that size on a plant with all the others different? No.

But does that mean that it is still Big Zac? No way.

Some of the people growing these seeds are now calling them Bigger Zac. As the records of what came from where and growers naming their new seeds after themselves, it is becoming impossible to tell what came from where. I have been growing some of these plants and I must say they continue to look like BZ tomatowise although some of the plants themselves are smaller with smaller root systems. It is interesting. There are seeds now that seem to be stabilized with nice plants and big tomatoes and solid records of what came from where but this is looking like the exception rather than the rule. Pumpkin growers who are growing these Big Zac offshoots are not bothering to keep good records and so the future of these seeds is not all that clear to me. Very confusing and probably not of much interest to most.

So, if these seeds came from tomatoes that were selected for size then the seeds are stable for size? I had thought most seeds would be fairly stable by F5? Am I wrong?
