I've read on these threads that a frost won't hurt the plant but what about say....several nights in a row of hard frosts? Should we go ahead and harvest now? It got down to 20 degrees F last night and more of the same is coming.
Would appreciated any knowledge on this subject! Thanks, Weedhopper:confused:
i am expecting frost myself tonite- I have read on this site that frost will not hurt bud- several years back i had frost on buds- they were burnt- turned real dark as if rotting- when cured the rest of the plant had a reall bad taste-i jokingly called it dirty sock pot- i too am wondering if i should cut today and avoid freeze burn
So Clovisman.....do you think you will pull today? Would you let me know? From what you say, I think maybe we should go ahead and pull em'.....I sure don't want em' to get ruined! Weedhopper:o
20 deg. and more of the same ? Either cover your plants with plastic or something similar or if that is impossible, pull them immediately. 20 deg. several nights in a row will ruin all your hard work.
Thanks, Houdini. We appreciate it! Weedhopper:thumbsup:
weedhopper- I decided to cover my plants- it did frost heavy here last night and called for tonite- but will be near 70 degrees this week - I took some tent poles positioned them around my girls and put a sheet over them, i took a stapler and pulled the sheet tight so as not to touch buds- this morning sheet was frozen stiff but my buds were snug and warm under the sheet - will do the same tonite - i hope all is well with your plants
Hey Clovisman! I'm glad your girls survived the frost! Ours did also, we pretty much did the same thing you did. We went ahead and harvested our Indica as it was in like the eighth week of flowering but we really didn't want to harvest the Sativas as we do not feel they are quite ready yet! Our Sativas are holding up great so far. Weedhopper:thumbsup:
