I'm at about the same point for my outdoor with nirvana short ryder. Folded my seeds in paper towel tuesday afternoon, wednesday morning all the seeds had softened with a little white tail just starting to come out. It is beautiful here so i started mine outside early just to get them nice and robust since june and july are the best growing months and i want to take full advantage of that.

Since I've had a few autoflower grows under my belt I'd be glad to help out, I'm subbed

I've got a few questions tho. 1, Is there a particular reason you went with the miracle gro mix? I understand if $ is an issue but there are a lot better soils out there. Not doggin at all but just curious.
I've found through my handful of auto grows is that they grow and yield to their environment. Having used the same size pots before with some Short Riders and only got an average of 1/4 oz from each plant. Once I went to 2.5 gallon pots my yield went up to 3/4-1 oz. MY ADVICE to you would be to go to larger pots and reap the benefits. I'm growing 2 Jock Horrors outside in 5 gallon buckets and they're about 3ft tall and gonna give me a good yield, about 1.5-2 oz each is what I'm expecting.

Do you have the space to grow plants that tall?

AND...

If you're not familiar with how to transition your plants from in to out. I suggest taking you babies to a shady spot for a couple hours a day and bring them back in. After a few days increase the number hours every couple of days and after about 2 weeks they should be ready to take on the full sun.

October? Is the big bang a regular seed and not auto?

If it's not auto then the height will depend on the size of your pots. My old roommate moved to nor.cal. and grows 15-20 foot trees in 200 gallon smart pots. Obviously not everybody has the room or money to put into that kind of setup but I'd get a couple light colored trash cans and drill some holes. I had 2 kaya golds going last year, started them indoors toward the end of summer and stuck them outside in october to kick them into flower. Had them in 7.5 gallon pots and they got to about 4-4.5 feet. I'd expect yours having a lot more growing time so you could likely have your plants grow to about the height of your wall
