The GPC sets the recognized standard for all world records in the curcurbita maxima family as used by Guinness for their World Record endeavors. GPC growers have set the World Records for the last 15 years. The approaching milestone of 2000 pounds will continue to drive and advance this hobby to lofty goals. Research and development supported by the GPC and its supporting clubs have enabled growers to make giant strides in the agricultural community. Annual weight records have been challenged repeatedly as the current world record of 1725 pounds (set this October 3, 2009.) is once again soon to be eclipsed.
The GPC strives to foster an environment friendly approach using basic organic techniques that has shown extreme fruit development can be obtained with out harming our surroundings.
