New Grower First Auto Grow (Paradise Vertigo)

[OttoFlour]

Never grew an autoflower before. So, here goes nothing.

I got seeds from herbies, 3/3 popped. Paradise Seeds Auto Vertigo, I have them staggered by week, but mainly watching the third (most recent) one for the purposes of this journal. (I didn't mark down when the first two sprouted, so I don't know exactly how far along they are. Will update with a few pics of them and approximate dates.)

Still finishing putting the closet together, but what I have so far:
-300W Apollo LED
-5 gallon grow bags
-Dr. Earth soil
-Dr. Earth Natural Wonder fertilizer

The plant I'm journaling about sprouted 8/1, so I have not yet watered it since I soaked the soil. It has 3 cotyledon leaves, so we'll see how that goes.

Hey, I got a Vertigo going as well, 20 days old yesterday, and it looks to the same size as your #3. Here's a pic

Compared to the auto Ultimates growing next to her that poked their heads up one day earlier, she is a slow starter.

Will be interesting to see how yours get along compared to this one.

Good luck

Ain't nothing, you end up with some nice smoke and you'll be a farmer.
I hope the Vertigo doesn't live up to its name and keep your head spinning.
My Purple Express did turn purple so you never know.
You two have that green thumb, plants are looking good.

Thank you @Corgy I'll keep it updated with pics and info. Glad to see someone doing a Vertigo around the same time, wanting to see it progress compared to yours.

Thanks @armanidog only one way to find our about that head spinning lol. Looking forward to growing my own buds and sampling them.

Yeah, that will be really cool. How do you prefer to do it, I can start a journal or I can post some pics in your thread now and then, or both?

We are basically growing under the same condition, I use LED and a 22,5 l Airpot(with an airdome). Nutes are different though, I use GH flora nova and bio-green additives.

Anyways, will be fun to see how both plants develop

Both for sure, I'll definitely subscribe to your journal if you put one up.

I was researching to see if there were any other journals up of vertigo before I planted (I wanted to see how mine should look through the stages). However, being unsuccessful I decided to throw them in the dirt anyway, hoping that someone else might be able to take something from it when they need to.

Day #4 for the youngest girl (I got feminized seeds, so hopefully that stays true). She's getting a little bigger, I can see the second set of leaves starting to form in her center, also the soil I noticed today is a little dry so I will be watering it shortly.

Meanwhile the other two are experiencing better growth, and the undergrowth is starting to kick off. The largest is roughly 3 weeks old, not much sign of sex, though I think you can see some pre-flowers if you look closely. Anyway, here are the pics of the girls:
