Outdoor Autoflowers 2022

I think the plants have almost stopped growing, and are now focussing on their flowers. They have some spots on the leaves from bugs, but not so much I worry about it. There is also almost no ants with aphids on the plants, compared to the other plants in the garden some of which are full of them. Maybe the ants know not to mess with these plants? Last week was not the best weather; pretty cloudy and rainy. But next week should be good with plenty of sun and high temperatures. So I am curious to see how they will grow!
