Best answer
Wood filler. If it was for my own shed you could line the inside with plywood or even go over the joints with another strip of wood

Caulking. Can get it in brown colour so no need to paint. If you use silicon you wont be able to paint over it very easily

Mines the same. I used a few pieces of wood inside the shed screwed in from The outside. It’ll stop the Bowing with temperature changes. Then I used a silicone sealant (solvent based, not water based) to fill the gaps.
