There's a 8 year old who has a pumpkin that tapes @285 in New Zealand.

Is this a record?

Picture of grower and pumpkin in my diary.

might be a record down under but we've got a number of young growers who've had larger kin.

Like Kingston Dunn!

I started when I was 7 no help from my parents they don't even garden! I gotta say though if the parents grow AG's how do we know the kids are really doing the work?... Not trying to be a downer but a young kid growing a 1600+ plus pounder who has a parent who grows AG's is hard to belive he did truly ALL the work.

Just my two cents :)
