When you say giant pumpkin - we're talking GIANT pumpkin!  Kiley Allan visits with a man whose entire goal has been to raise a 2,000 pound pumpkin.  His name is Brian Turner.  He's been growing giant pumpkins for the last 6 years. After  four years of aiming for a 2,000-pound pumpkin, Bryan Turner achieved a 2,069-pound pumpkin at the Stillwater Harvest Fest, exceeding his calculated estimate of 1,920 pounds.  To improve his growing setup, Turner installed a phone-controlled drip irrigation system with an IBC tote, pump, and sprinkler controller to deliver precise, automated watering 3–4 times daily. Turner documents his six-year journey of giant pumpkin growing under "The Turner Ranch" on social media platforms (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook), attracting millions of views.
