Try the 720 (and still growing) Rockwell squash.. lol It is 4 and a hlaf
ft long now.. 148 inches in circumference, lots of cantelouping.. Only
problem so far that I can see in its genetic makeup, is the small dill
ring that formed like a month ago, and I do not know what it has for
wall thickness there..
