Pumpkin King

Twenty-nine-year-old Sasha Chusov has been growing giant pumpkins on his six-acre plot of land in the Moscow region for many years. For him, it's an agrosport and a path to the title of "Pumpkin King." Last year, Sasha set a Russian record with his 817-kilogram pumpkin. This year, he truly believes his pumpkin will not only weigh over a ton but also become the heaviest in the world. After all, he's already purchased a selective seed at auction and built a greenhouse with heat pumps, a heating system, irrigation, and ventilation. He controls everything from the nutrition to the soil.
