Autos Growing Slow as Hell.

Hi, I have 2 Autos, an Afghan Kush Ryder, and an AutoDurban Poison. They are both about 3 weeks old. They are in 3 gallon pots with a medium of mostly potting soil, with the addition of perlite, vermiculite, and horse manure. It has been raining like 2-3 times a week so I dont really water them much. I am growing them outside in the southeastern USA. Temps have ranged from 48-82 degrees, but usually not dropping below 55 degrees. They get sunlight from about 7:30 AM to 8:30 PM. I see no signs of pests. They were no transplants. The Afghan Kush Ryder is about 4 inches tall with 8-10 nodes, and 4-5 inches in diameter, and is starting to grow a bit faster. The AutoDurban Posion is about the same height but only has 4 leaves WTF? They show no discoloring or signs of stress, so Im completely clueless as to whats wrong. They are both WAY smaller than the pictures I see of other people's grows. I am to the point of tossing the Durban and just abandoning the AKR. Can someone please tell me why they are so slow? Thanks.

Did you read what you wrote? 12-13 hours light for one will slow them down. Any time your day temp and night temp swing more than 15 degrees could slow them down. Out side your rate of growth it sounds like your having a good run going, but autos seem to start off small and really take off after 4th week. I think your right at the point they should take off. I would give it another 7-10 days before you give up hope. Hang in their.

Im not patient enough lol. I am starting 2 more autos next month, maybe they will do better.
Rip them bitches out of the ground and stomp the seeds out of them!! Tell them how you feel. You grew too slow so I had to kill you. I didn't wanna do it but YOU MADE ME DO IT!! You know that I have very little patience.
