Is easy ryder auto worth vegging indoors and transplanting?

I have 9 easy ryder autos seeds and I want to grow them out doors (I live in pnw). I have 3x3 tent with a 400 w mh. I want to start them in 2 gal pots in the tent in June and plant them outdoors around july. My question is would I be better off putting them straight in the ground in June or veg inside first? The only thing I am worried about is stressing them out too much and the weather in northern Washington isn't always the best in June.

Another idea I had was planting them straight in the ground and covering them with a cloche or cold frame.

Does anyone have experience growing easy ryder auto?


Thanks dudes!

I play with an auto or two on the side of my ongoing grows. Kinda the off in the corner since the lights are already going thing. I also do ALOT of experiments trying to better my game.

In my experiences you need to start autos in the container they will finish in. Put them outside when it's right out there, but don't transplant. They don't handle it well. Their tap root don't grow like normal plants, it grow kinda sideways. Seems like when the tap root "taps" against something they stop pushing deeper. We all know the saying,"more roots,more fruits", this could not more true for autos, IME.
Hope this helps.
