I've been wondering how big the leaves can get on an AG. The biggest leaf I can find on my plant is 21 inches across (at its widest point). Most of them aren't that big, but the older mature ones are about that size.

AG leaves can get quite large. there are variations though. i've seen leaves on my own plants at 24", right now they are about 21-22" on my plants. Dan Carlson in iowa has a picture, i should get him to send it to me, he had a leaf on a plant that i'm pretty sure he said was 3' accross. i'm pretty sure this isn't normal! you're biggest leaves will be on the main vine, but, if you grow every other secondary like some people do, that gives the leaves more room to grow, and they will get large also.
