How to unlock the Lift Off achievement in GROW UP - Definitive Guide

When you have added a Sporchid to your inventory (pink balloon-like plants that fly upwards when touched), you need to plant two of them close together and grab each one simultaneously. Sometimes one may not shoot off at the same time as the other so it may take a few attempts to get right. If the Sporchid keeps flying off without any interaction, delete it by grabbing and pressing cn_B or plant new ones. Make sure you have no obstacles above you. The achievement should unlock in the air when you have reached 400m.

I strongly recommend using the BUD-tanical suit, which is unlocked for completing five of the POD challenges. This maximizes the size of the plants that you grow, and in this case, the time that the Sporchid spends in the air.

Alternatively, plant these on the moon; gravity is much lower there.

The BUD-tanical suit does ABSOLUTELY NOT make the Sporchids fly for a longer time or even further. They are just bigger.

But I did finally get it after trying for about an hour and a half when I tried on the moon. First try too.

I had a little trouble getting this one - the Sporchids would run out before I got high enough. So I planted 2 on the moon, grabbed on and got it first go.

Put down two sporchids next to eachother grab both of them (one in each hand) move around and they should shoot up pulling you and giving you this achievement. It's a little tricky to get them to blast off so try planting them in different spots until you can get it to work. Another thing you can do is put the bug suit on which attracts bugs to you and them pushing the sporchids usually sends them off.

Couldn't get it to work until I tried it on the moon. Worked first try there.

One of the most frustrating trophies of this game. After scanning a Sporchid, you can attempt this trophy.

To do this, plant two next to each other, in a way you can grab both of them at once, then try holding both at the same time, and they will be launched upwards. It seems they fly up for exactly 400 meters, so once they lose power, the trophy should unlock.

Keep in mind two things. First, it doesn't always work, as these plants have a nasty behavior to not blast off when you hold them, or even one of them launches, while the other doesn't; second, do it on the ground. I've tried it on a floating island at first, to no avail, as it seems you need to be launched up t 400 meters off the ground, not just 400 meters up high. Sometimes it needs multiple tries to get it. But keep doing it until it unlocks.

For a visual guide, please refer to the video below.

The first thing you'll need to do for this achievement is find and scan a Sporchid floraform. They are located all over the dark biome and look like small pink balloons. Once you've scanned one, you can now plant its seeds. 

Go to the ground somewhere where there are no islands or anything overhead. Plant two Sporchid seeds next to each other, then walk between them and grab one with  and one with . They should then both take off into the air while you're holding onto them both. Once you've traveled 400m (which is around the crest of your upward travel) the achievement will unlock. 

It will likely take a couple tries to get this, as the Sporchids can be difficult and launch at random times, not at the same time, sputter out early, etc. Just plant new seeds and try again with another pair until you can get it just right.

We take two sporchids in both hands and shake them until they fly up (it may not work on the first try)

If you grow your sporchids in a regular suit, you won’t be able to fly to the required height. Look for a clearing with these plants and choose the larger ones so that two large flowers are nearby and practice on them. If you have already completed 10 tests, then a botanist costume will help you grow large flowers.

The hint above is not the correct description.
Nothing like this, I grew sprouts in a regular suit, two side by side, grabbed each one and pulled it towards me. The trophy dropped as soon as my flight with the sprouts ended

Can be done as soon as you have obtained the seeds of the plant. To do this, they just need to be planted side by side on a vertical elephant on the edge of a hanging island. So that they do not look up, but at an angle. Approach them from below, grab both sporchids with both hands and pull even harder down. It may not be possible to fly away with two at once, and getting back onto the island at the beginning is difficult, so it’s better to leave it until you have three batteries and an air brake. If you manage to start with two at once, then the flight will go almost horizontally (that’s the whole trick) and not vertically, accordingly the speed will be gained faster and the range will increase. With an ordinary suit and ordinary flowers. Verified.
