Well for my outdoor autos it's all about higher temps an lots of sunshine. Everything weather wise this week is changing the days are 20 degrees cooler as are the early dark mornings. My current autos are struggling at best do to the non consistaint weather patterns, photos are great but autos struggling at 70f long overcast mornings till 9am and 50f nights. They loved those 85f days and 60f nights but now yes i see perhaps stretch to begin preflowering and they are small. If they had been your size 90Gizmo they would be doing much better. I would move these indoors but i've got 2 flowering in the tent now no room for 4 more. Those are beautiful plants so it's your call

SoOrbudgal I'd be happy if these were autos getting ready for flower as four secondary stalks are developing really well. The only "training" I've done was to do an early trim of the node 2 and 3 fan leaves. I did that on my third grow and was very happy with the results. I'll pull them out from the middle once I get some stakes into the pots.
I did order the greenhouse and only got yelled at for a little bit. I expect the greenhouse will be more important extending the grow season that keeping things warm at first. It's not warm right now especially at night but I'll keep my girls inside for now.
But how about a makeshift greenhouse for you? Putting clear trash bags over them might be the simplest thing though I'd expect high humidity. Or just run a rope over two poles and put clear plastic over it like a clear tent... Probably less that twenty bucks if you had to buy everything new. It's just an idea but I've seen it done before.

I have my greenhouse up now put it up last week. I washed it down yesterday with bleach&dishsoap. Of course i'd rather have them looking as healthy as yours before i'd of put them out but this was my very first time placing sprouts into dirt and leaving them outdoors entirerly. I've always vegged them indoors for at least 6wks. This is what i get but the weather even a month ago was in the upper 80s-90s so i took a chance. I'm just sayin for myself and these 2 galaxy strains and 2 sweet tooth autos that they prefer way warmer consistent temps.

Oh and my 2 reg photo seeds are female also so bonus for you and me. They are 2 of the tallest photos outdoors i got right now. Really exciting cause i've never had luck like that before.

@SoBudgal It's been a very cool spring here. I think even a greenhouse would need heating at night or maybe passive solar to get an early start outdoors. Mother's Days has been a traditional start of outdoor season here but that would have been too early this year. Even this morning the the weather report was "April." Great pics! Makes me think maybe I can get some established tomatoes and peppers to go with my grow.
The person that gifted these seeds called his plants tall in his own posts so the size may just be genetics. Anyway the weather is the weather, can't change it can't make it better. If you don't think you'll get the yield you want is it too late to plant more? I might try that just to see if I can skip a winter grow altogether.

Yes probley 90Gizmo. I use my small one to place my succulants over winter, start my spring flowers and keep late flowering photos from being rained on. I plan short indica strains that hopefully won't go past sept. now i only have room inside it for 2 6ft. but i have to sometime supercrop the top cola. Now though i got this patio/awning built that will give shelter also. I use to love escapeing into my greenhouse. I won't get lights or deal with trying to grow inside it just gonna be sun, heat natural. Mine is sitting on dirt.
