    Well, I doubt they can get larger than earth, so I’d say it’s somewhere between 3,000 lbs and earth’s weight.

    I saw one of those around 2000 lb pumpkins. They are a beautiful sight. I want to grow one but I know I don’t have the space

      Holy fuck, I just looked up the record. Not what I was expecting at all. It looks like one of those 700 lb. people who can’t roll off of their futon. Even the underside is shockingly similar.

      I probably should work on getting the bush type plant mutant into the giant pumpkin germplasm again.

      The first tests were had a 400lb pumpkin into a 8’x8’ plot. They split and cracked however.

    Are they still edible or just enormous garbage and waste of resources?

    How does that work? Selective breeding? Fertilizer? Growth hormones? New growing techniques? What is it that’s allowing these pumpkins to get bigger and bigger?
