What do I do about frost?
    #586598 - 09/16/11 10:39 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

Rumor is it might frost here already. My girls have at least 2 weeks...theres no way I can get there tonight to cover them up or anything.

Will one frost be the end of my plants?

Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

Im hoping the frost will hold of here in the Midwest for a couple more weeks myself. It's getting damn cold at night, into the low 40's. As far as what it'll do to our plants idk, but it can't be good.

it's written right here.
it's absolutely clear.

Depends on how severe the frost is.
Here in the south east I've seen plants last thru 3 to 4 frosts with no real damage.
If the temps don't stay down for to long you should be ok.

Well its been getting chilly at night, like high 30's, but tonight there might be the first frost.

Generally it doesn't frost until early November. This is my first outdoor grow really.

Most good sized plants will survive a light or moderate frost, but it depends a lot on the genetics :shrug:

I actually called my cousin up (they're at his house) and he brought them in the garage last night.

It didn't end up frosting, but its good to know that there is hope for them if I don't call him and catch it in time.

Oh yeah, if they're in containers above ground that probably makes them a little more frost-prone too.

Yeah, thats why I was more concerned.

At least they're autoflowers and will be ready early. If I had to wait until the end of October like him I'm not sure they'd make it. Its been damn cold.
