One Bundle
Should be headed but not ripe enough to shatter, and shown full length (cut near the
ground). Bundle should be not less than 3 inches or more than 5 inches at center band.
Should be cured (dried) before forming bundle. Each bundle will be considered on basis
of early stage of maturity, leafiness, and green color; and on preparation and appearance
of bundle. Undersized and oversized bundles and wet or moldy bundles will be disqualified.
If Superintendent or judge deems that any bundle is old, from
previous years, or is masked (New leaves over old) the Supt. has the right to disqualify
the bundle. Only one exhibit allowed per class per individual.
