This update is a bit late so the pictures you see are late week 4 into week 5. Also, one of the plants (Acapulco Gold - feminized) got adopted by a friend. Not to complicate things for this diary, but we've started those extra seeds we found (scroll down to end). They've quickly germinated and now steady growing in solo cups. But let's stay on track for this diary before we branch out.
One major update here is that three of the plants were transplanted into medium-sized pots with soil for vegetation and root growth. It's still a bit too cold for them outside at night, but they get lots of warm sun during the day. We've had a lot of rain here, too. So, the more sun and 70 day temps, the better. Anyway, everything is doing pretty well EXCEPT the Rubber Match seeds by Secret Society Seed Co. The plant is just not thriving and doesn't seem like it's growing as well. We tried germinating another but the seed casing is just not popping. Bummer about the Rubber Match, don't know if we have any more, gotta check...

@love_2_grow, thanks for the comment. This will be my third year of growing my own so hopefully I have learned a few lessons and don't repeat some previous mistakes.
Autos don’t have to be small, and your plants were stunted due to stress of some sort. Could be lots of things but my guess is cool overnight temperatures. For northern hemisphere outdoor autos, or at least here in Canada, don’t start autos until mid to late May. Your plants will be way bigger and still done by end of Summer. Good luck.
