Just 3 pounds shy of the world record, but Mark Baggs weighed a 253 pound Marrow at the Sunnyfields weigh off on Saturday. That is a PB for him and a new GPC record. He deserves a round of applause. Congratulations!

Saw a pic of that dark green/black monster, amazing to think I have a 100 lb marrow here and Mark's is over twice the size!!! Incredible way to go.

He also weighed a WR Butternut squash, if I'm not mistaken: 117.9 lbs.

Thanks, I was unlucky and lost all but one but fortunately the lone survivor just happened to be the largest this year.
I will have to try again next year!
And you are mistaken, Jason loris grew two butternut squashes this year which beat the WR. One over 120 lbs and the new WR 131.4 lbs. Im surprised there has been no mention of this on here? So well done to him!
Mark.

Mark, your one talented young grower and you will get that WR.
There’s a photo on my diary and it’s worth looking at.
