I'm glad you asked.  In terms of cumulative Growing Degree-Days,
detail is important.  Decisions about when to spray chemicals, for
example, are made day-to-day.  Five days spans the time between "too
early" and too late."  If the chart is too wide, the time detail and
the difference between starting cumulative GDD and ending is not so
obvious, so the chart is only 28 days wide. For the sake of the model
the accumulation, however, must begin on the "start date," whenever that
is, even though it may be farther than 28 days in the past.

You can try making the "time_length" for the "four-week_images"
longer, but this probably will cause the x-axis limits to snap to
month boundaries.  You will lose the daily granularity of the 28-day
charts.  You can change the same time constant (2419200 seconds) in
the $SKIN_ROOT/Phenology/cumulative_growing_degree_days.html.tmpl to
print a longer history, too.
