$Gordon Lowe, a retired accountant with the massive marrow which he planted and forgot about, after it swelled to an enormous, award-winning three and a half stone. After buying seeds on the Internet Gordon Lowe, 67, planted them in his allotment and forgot about the vegetable. Then after six months of no care or attention, Lowe from Portsmouth, Hants, returned to the allotment to find the marrow had grown to a colossal size. He was especially shocked as it was the first he had ever grown and admitted it \'was basically a mistake.\' (Photo/VCG)$
