Heard the rumour of a 130+" Bob. No idea who or where. Only record I know for sure will fall is the Dutch record and it should fall 5 times according to what I hear. Old record (not mine) is 77" and there are a few in the (high) 90s.

I heard the same 130+ rumor but no idea who or where.
I hope we get another world record this year and I
was just playing with Duff.

Marty your 115 is a good effort, congratulations.

Brad, congratulation to you & your fellow Dutch
growers.

Best of luck to everyone:

I heard the rumor of a real long gourd as well that could
set a new Canadian record or better and I heard it's growing in Esatern Ontario some where.

Hmmmm:

I have heard rumors of a new LG Canadian record
which is not in Ontario.

There are also rumors of new records up the NE US
corridor.

I enjoy the rumors, but I also enjoy the unknown results which are announced during the weigh off time and are big surprises.

Bob A.--not a rumor anymore,Todd Kline of Quebec had a 128.56" LG officially measured at the GPC site at Pembroke,Ontario.
That takes my Canadian record of 124" last year and beats the Urena WR of 127.56 in 2007.
There were several very good LGs there,I assume the site officials will be out with official lists in a few days.

Congratulations to Todd Kline!

The Dutch record fell yesterday too.
98.8" on my 122 Eaton 05.
