Hi everyone,I suspect my mandarine auto is soffering of dwarfism due to the lack of light as is an outdoor and unfortunately that is all the light I can give her. Do you guys think I will have some more stretching out of her before flowering or it's going to be a fail?

Autos really don't do that well outdoors, they are designed for indoors and an 18/6 light schedule. I tried autos outdoors for a few years and they just don't perform, the best one I got was about 4 feet tall, the worst about 8 inches and the rest averaged between 1 and a half and 2 feet. Yours isn't flowering, so don't get too stressed yet, it will still grow some more, but it ain't going to be a giant. If you are in the northern hemisphere, there is still plenty of time to get another round or two of planting done, waiting until the end of May/beginning of June will give you the most daylight and the best potential for growing plants with a bit more size to them. No plant is a fail, even if it is only a few grams, it is very satisfying harvesting something you grew with your own hands. I found training them slowed them down and it seems autos grew best outdoors if left alone to do their own thing. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Hmmm, dwarfism with no light. She should be like basketballer without light, not like dwarf. But I can be wrong. Let her live bro, that's your plant. She looks good for me like on this week. Keep watching her, maybe she got some time yet before flo.
