Hey kudo's they are alive. So many variables in outdoor growing (in my opinion) and the season is looooong.

Well they look exactly like my outdoor garden. I have a theory on what's happened this year. All the wildfire smoke changed the color of the atmosphere. Not only blocking the sunlight from reaching the ground but altering the spectrum. If you noticed a lot of red sky evening sun sets I think the smoke filtered all the blue out and the plants felt more red, hence earlier flowering and fruiting on everything we grew but short plants.
If they only get long red spectrum, which would be similar to late fall low angle sun, they stayed short but the photoperiod was long so no flowering yet.
I think the soil was probably fine. Just an idea.

I had a couple years of outdoor growing in wildfire smoke. All it did was cause them to flip a bit early. I literally had ash falling on plants one year, so i had to put the rain tarp up early. Had great results even with the smoke.
Bad soil is my hunch.
