Guidelines for inclusion
in the Long Gourd on-line data base

1.  Long Gourd must be at least 85 inches long measured from end to end according to the GPC rules.   If the parents of a qualifying Long Gourd did not qualify in previous years, they will be added to the data base to maintain the genetics.

 

2.  All Long Gourds of at least 85 inches measured according to the GPC rules
but not taken to a public competition will be classified as UOL (Unofficial Length).
 

 

3. A maximum of five (5) qualifying long gourd entries per year per grower will be accepted for inclusion in the Long Gourd data base.
 

 

4.  When submitting entries to the list please include length in inches and decimals of inches (999.99), grower name, location (state, province or country), year, female and male parents (length, grower and year for each), and placement at competition. See example below.

 

Length	Grower	Location	Year	Status	Female	Male	Comments
126.50	Jutras	RI	2006		104 Eaton 2005	82 El-Kassis 2005	World Record 2006
