Maine woman grows record-breaking 170-pound zucchini, breaks North American and US records after 162-pound giant was disqualified over tiny split

A Maine woman has grown a 170-pound giant marrow zucchini, breaking both the North American and US records. Sarah Whitty’s previous 162.5-pound zucchini was disqualified last year after developing a tiny split. This year, she protected her surviving plant from a Nor’easter and heavy rain to finally claim the record.
