I've just tried without luck.
are you running growthcoind from linux or OS X? if linux witch version?
I've tried in both Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Ubuntu 13.10
Ok, try this instead: http://grw.blockx.info/grw_bootstrap_20140529.tar.gz
Make sure to clean all your appdata folder (except your wallet.dat of course)
put in this bootstrap.dat before starting the client (if you started the client make sure to delete any blk* files in that folder.
then start your client.
With the bootstrap.dat file, your client will recreate the index and get the missing blocks from the network.
alternatively you can force the connection to good nodes by making sure to remove the peers.dat file and starting your client with the -connect=IP switch. you try any of this page nodes running version 1.3.0.0
