Pandora is not as early as the Vertigo, but she's starting to frost up. I was worried about the lack of a smell, but she's now developing a sweet aroma.
Nice fat buds. They should really bulk up over the next 2 weeks (Day 53 now).

looking good buddy.....hopefully it's potent. Always worry's me when they don't stink also.
Highroller,
I'm also worried about Paradises' bold claim:
That's a pretty high bar they've set for Pandora. I'm betting it was a poor choice of words!

All these seed dealers make a lot of claims/sales pitch.....Buying genetics is like gambling. I gambled on sour 60. heavy hitter but buzz was lacking to say the least. 10 plants 10 phenos. I read smoke reports on here that said it was potent. makes me wonder if some of these growers even smoke. I've grown a couple autos. A couple of my diesel ryders were outstanding.
Way too many people tried to rush autos into the marketplace. This has soured a lot of people on autos. I know I had horrid results with my supposed lowryder2s that just would not stay in flower.
So far the five Vertigos I have had 4 similar plants and just one outlier, a dwarf that I likely caused with a PH imbalance.
The last two are starting to flower nicely. The plants are a bit small, but they've been sharing light and space with other projects.
Shown here on May23:
I really like the Vertigos. I took a small test of one of the outside Vertigos and the smoke is as good as my first Vertigo. That's saying a lot as that smoke was as good as I'd had in decades.
Pandora Day 58. She still has a good way to go:

Looks good to me.
Looks like it will be a while.... 
Looks like you should get a descent yield also.

JM,
The Pandora I grew certainly doesnt live up to the "best ever" title. I smoked a sample yesterday and I'm not writing home to momma about it.
I may not be dancing over Pandora, but I'm lovin on my last two Vertigos. Even the popcorn gets frosty early:
These buds are looking just like my first vertigo. Nice skunky lemon smell, too.
The first Vertigo filled a quart canning jar. I've had a while to savor its smoke and its still top notch.

The last of 5 Vertigo seeds are now 40 dank days old.
I was lucky and ended up with 4 plants of very similar structure and one dwarf out of 5 seeds.
I don't know why others had such variable plants, just as I don't know why my LR2's didn't auto flower. My Vertigos were very uniform, very resinous and very early.
I took one hit tonight of my second Vertigo. This outside plant simply floored me with her punch.
Wow.Amazing smoke.

All 5 of my Vertigo and my sole Pandora are curing. The Vertigo yielded about a QP and the Pandora was around 1.5 ounces.
The Pandora smoke is ok, just ok. There isn't much to say about her taste. She's weak that way. There's a good solid stone, "stoned" as the package describes the high. I would be glad to have it IF I didn't have anything else.
The Vertigo smoke is very good. Its just too bad that I do not care for the rotten lemon flavor.
The high is strong and somewhat sedative. I find that I hit a couple of hits of my good Danish sativa early in the evening and then take a kick from Vertigo to send me to bed and a good sleep.
My Vertigo were uniform and extremely early. I'm very glad I tried them.

Sorry to hear about your Pandora. I'm going through the same problem with my big devil#2. Out of this world bag appeal no taste and weak buzz. Since growing autos I noticed it can be hit and miss but always a good utility. Sounds like your vertigo payed off though. A QP should keep you right for a while.......
