What's the coldest she can live through?

What's the coldest she can live through?

Forecast low temperature is for 27 degrees tomorrow night. Is that cold enough to kill my outdoor plants? I can't bring them in as they're growing in the ground. I was thinking about sneaking out to my grow site after dark and covering them with a contractor garbage bag and then sneak out again in the morning before the sun comes up to take the bags off. Any advice? My buds are nowhere near being ready.

Tough call, man. What about the temps tomorrow? What are they going to be like in your area?

I don't think one night below freezing would kill them, but its probably not the best way to go.

I like your contractor bags idea. I'd go with that.

You're dedicated! :joint:

CFO: I've never done an outdoor grow but if your plants are not nearly done by October I don't know if they'll ever be able to finish. I'm in Chicago and we're supposed to get snow on Monday. Maybe we'll get a warm spell and your plants can get another week of sun but that's iffy. Even if they're not done, if they have some immature buds you can make hash or cannabutter out of them.

Some really nice looking buds in the Midwest. Chewwy, your grows looks awesome. Big V and Dice420, those purple outdoor plants look great, any harvest shots? PhilC, how are those Euro strains? Those Euro's know their weed or what?
Stickyicky is proving you can grow dank under CFL's.

My organic soil buds turned out great, best run yet. I think better closet temps had more to do with the increase in quality than the fact they were organic. We'll see. I took down the closet and set up two tents: a 3x3 with a 400w for veg and moms, and a 4x4 with an ebb and flow tray under a 600w for flower. Pics to follow once everything's set up and running. I'm doing coco in 3 gallon pots using hydro nutes (GH Lucas formula). Hopefully quality will remain the same and yield will be greatly increased. :rasta:

My electric rate seems low. I'm in Chicago. The rate with all the fees, 12 cents. Without the fees, .65 cents per KWH. My op uses 115.92 KWH per month and costs, about $12.50 a month. Replacing all the incannies with CFL's was a boon! I thought I was running closer to 25 a month.
