I've grown this the last couple of years in a greenhouse but not cared for it particularly well. Last year 2 plants @ 3.3kg (just over 7lb.) each. This year it is a bit in the shade in the greenhouse and just 1 plant. Just 650g picked so far but could probably go and get another 500g now as they keep well on the plant. The trusses don't have many fruit on them so Real Seeds advise letting a few side shoots develop for more trusses. I've just looked as the trusses and most flowers is 9 with about 6 being most common. I ould hope to get 4 to 5kg this year.
Yeah I recall reading that on Real Seeds before, so I let it grow 3 stems. Like you say, not many fruit per truss, and I also found them to be very variable in size. Just cut it down and stripped the fruit off as it had a bit of blight on the leaves.
