Wow SC! They're amazing! I think that 4kg one definitely outweighs my biggest beast a couple of years ago.
I think they taste great even at that size. They take on flavours really well, but don't have that strong flavour, so they're great with everything.
If you want it to store until winter, leave them on the plant until they go a pale yellow. That's when they're ready to store long term. I ate my beast in February the year after, and it had been stored in the kitchen leaning up into a corner next to my kettle - it was the only place I could put it! Mine had turned pink inside by then, almost watermelon kind of colour and it had turned very sweet. Too sweet actually, to be savoury, if that makes sense.
Awesome work SC
