Competitive farmers worldwide are growing massive squash – with some giant pumpkins weighing more than small cars.
Although the fate of this enormous fruit may not include transforming into Cinderella’s magical carriage before midnight or even a spooky doorstep-size jack-o’-lantern on Halloween, their growth is astonishing. According to ABC News, giant pumpkins grow at a rate about 100 times faster than typical pumpkins. In just a single day, they can gain an average of 20 to 40 pounds and as much as 60 pounds under peak conditions.
Here’s a look at the biggest, record-breaking and most awe-inspiring pumpkin from across the country and around the globe.
World record in October 2021: 2,703 pounds
