What records are related to zucchini?

The longest

Sometimes the size and shape of zucchini can surprise many. Some zucchini may seem a little elongated, but they are far from being a vegetable that made it onto the pages of the Guinness Book of Records.

As it turns out, a Canadian farmer was able to grow a zucchini whose length exceeded two and a half meters.

The Canadian has been actively working on zucchini for ten years. He believes that his secrets are simple: abundant and regular watering, the introduction of necessary fertilizers and a long daylight period (in the place where the record-breaking zucchini grows, it is about 15 hours).

The most difficult

This achievement is recorded in the Russian Book of Records. One of the vegetable growing enthusiasts managed to grow a zucchini whose weight exceeded 50 kilograms.

If we talk about the most "weighty" zucchini on the planet, then several years ago a British man managed to establish that his vegetable weighed more than 116 kilograms.
