Twin brothers who spend six hours each day tending to their pumpkins believe they are about to smash a world record by growing one weighing more than 188 stones (1,194kg). Stuart and Ian Paton, 59, use over 150 gallons of water every day to help their gigantic squashes flourish - increasing the weight by over 55lbs every 24 hours at their peak.
