Cool weather

Hello all, I started auto skunk #1. The weather usually let's me plant them outside by now. NOT!I started them inside to put outside but the weather isn't cooperating.  Im worried they will start bolting. Im not set up for indoor grow. The temps should be in the 70s during the day and upper 50s at night but the temps are 60 during the day and 30s at night. Im using a small starter light. I just usually use it to get them started then put outside. Starts are 3 inches tall and starting there second set of leaves.

Anyone know what I can do to stop them from bolting.

Thanks for your help

    • I am in Maine and we havent had a day it hit 70 yet but I put 2 photoperiods out on the front porch a week or so ago and they are doing great so far. I think the lows have been in the high 40's but they are close to the house so they get some residual heat. My autos are just seedlings but I plan to kick them out next week. 

      The one time I grew Autos inside it seemed like toping them prolonged the time in veg to about 5-6 weeks and I kept feeding grow nutes for a couple of weeks after that and they kept on stretching, that is just a theory and a one time grow so take it for what its worth and remember there is risk. There are lots of auto growers on here and lots of outdoor growers on here, I am neither so wait for them to chime in and good luck

          • I spent about 25 years in the desert on this continent, If I am still around it 10 years I want to go back, humidity and cold weather hurt.
