Yeah yours are way further lol. I wish we had warmer weather early on my house inside looks like a greenhouse In the spring. I got seeds I popped June 1st of some black beauties they are almost a foot tall now. The beefsteak I started early may indoors. I also have a Brandy wine, a Berkeley pink tie-dye, and Cherokee purples as well. And a couple random cherry tomatoes. Beefsteak are seeds I harvested from a tomato in 2017 I grew.

I think I started my tomatoes about the end of April inside. Then they went into the greenhouse about May. I also have Brandywine tomatoes growing and another 6 varieties.

I just framed out my small greenhouse in my shop. Then set it up outside. It has the same covering on it for 3 years.
What kind of covering did you use Tim? I could easily build one out of pressure treated wood then wrap it myself

I am lucky enough to get free greenhouse plastic. It's heavier at 6 mils than the cheap stuff from the big box stores and it has a UV resistant coating on the outside surface. I framed my walls 6' and my peak at 8 feet. It works well for everything except photo period plants.

Some folks have good luck topping autos, I never have got a yield after topping like you would photos. I suppose you could do a side by side with the same strain and test which strain does best. But personally I just send them no interrupting the growth process.
