Grow Out; Indo Gold Torch

[Brittany]

These will be ready for Fishtoberfest September 28th-29th, but I will set up other times to meet if need be.

It is a classic Gold Indo Torch.  Grown in my tank.  Cut this week and already looking good.

Great part of this grow out will be first place prize.  

After 6 months prize will be 1 head Golden Basket Guacamole Torch that I have grown in my tank

Fortunately, I was able to get 10 heads, but they are not the same size.  I have priced them accordingly.  All 10 entries will have an equal chance at winning the grow-out prize but the larger frags will always be larger.  Judges will look at the size of your frag at the beginning, and end of the contest and the frags will be judged on how much it has grown and the colors/general health at the end of the 6 months.

Contest will run October 15h-March 15th.

Winner will be announced March 20th.

3 Judges.  Your judges will be announced before October 15th.  (anyone wants to judge please PM me).
