So correct me if I’m wrong... the bushel goard Lagenaria siceraria has taken the place of the watermelon Citrullus lanatus as the world’s second largest species of “fruit” of any kind???

Who had the great foresight at the gpc to know this would happen??! I’m genuinely impressed gpc guys.

PS Jim Sherwood in the 300 lb club. Congrats Jim on a really big bushel gourd!

Jeremy Terry’s 384.5 is not only the largest bushel gourd... but the largest specimin of any species of fruit other than C. maxima? I think it’s interesting. Did anyone else stop and think about this?
