I started my sunflowers indoors. I have one big south-facing window but we've had hardly any sun. I have no outdoor space at home.

They're now 8" - 12" tall and looking a bit sad after days with hardly any sunlight. Would it be better to put them in my very drafty unheated greenhouse with the broken door on the allotment to get more light? Or keep them warm indoors in the even worse light?

Putting them in the greenhouse in the morning and bringing them home in the evening is not practical due to working patterns and lack of car.

Same problem here, but the only choice I had, was to bring everything indoors and onto window-ledges.  :D
I really can't remember it still being cold, at night, at this time of year before - but that may just be selective memory, I suppose?

The same here, + the odd glimpse of sun, to go with it. Overnight low in the g/house was 9C - that's better  :D
