milford, CT,

I have a fruit that has a pear shape. It is not a deformity...it is just heavy in the shoulders and thinner towards the front. Is there anything I need to know about this shape to prevent problems down the road..or is this a preferred shape? Does this shape tend to go light/heavy? Mark
