The supersized squash



“Two British farmers have grown Europe’s largest-ever vegetable - a mammoth 1,341lb pumpkin. The supersized squash took a staggering 80 gallons of water a day to grow and is 100 times heavier than an average supermarket pumpkin. It was planted in a purpose-built polytunnel in April by father and son farmers Mark and Frank Baggs and needed six tonnes of manure to reach its current size.”
