onco iris seedlings under lights

I bet your oncos would do great under one of them until its safe to go
outside in spring.

We had a discussion (yes, I talk to my plants), and the two that look
slightly unhappy are going out into the garden tomorrow. I do know how cold
it's supposed to get in the next few days but I have portable greenhouses
which work quite well.
The issue seems to arise in the second year. I thought I could keep them
going until the third year, and plant them out then, but apparently not.

A greenhouse would be ideal. I'm only allowed one "out building" on the
property, which I already have, but it just occurred to me that a greenhouse
is essentially clear, and so maybe no one will notice it.
