    In Iraq we had paper coins called POGS that were given as change at the exchange.

    Anyway, Pastel OG's are pretty darn sweet, and a steal for the price they go for.

    In '03 my tent mates and I nailed a sandbag to the inside of the door and dumped all our POGs in there. By the time we left we had about $150 worth. We took them to the BX and made the manager count them all so we could get real money before we deployed back to the world. That dude was not happy

    Here's our little male POG! He is only about 200 grams so he still has awhile before he really comes into his color. They are definitely one of those moprhs that gets better with age.

    Hi .

    I've got the opportunity to buy one of these beauties BUT I have heard that they fade quite dramatically with age , losing their colouring but still remaining pretty damn gorgious .

    Has anyone got experience of mature Pastel Orange Ghosts or any photos you can share .

    Thanks

    Ghosts get better with age. The blacks fade to a ghosty gray look. But their other colors get better in my opinion.

    This is my adult female:


    Then compare her to an adult single gene pastel without the ghost gene.

    I miss slim.


    POGs do change in color over time in some of the same ways pastels do. The Ghost gene cleans it up quite a bit and prevents / counters a lot of that, but there is still some. Overall they are a great morph and when you add in other 'cleaner' genes besides the ghost like Enchi, Lesser, etc.. then they start to get REALLY amazing and bright and colorful.
