Who's got plants outside and what is your plan?

My Pandora's Box is about 4-5 days from finishing and my Northern Lights#5 has probably 10 to go. I'm pulling them into the shed tonight I think.

Good luck with it all Medshed. I assume there is temp control of some sort in the shed? I had some friends who harvested a big outdoor crop last year and hung it in a shed to dry the night we got that big October snow and when they looked the next morning all of it ( multiple pounds) was totally frozen and DARK green. Turned most of the product into garbage.
Now that I think about it the shed they used may have not been insulated.... and the snow was pretty epic...so I'm sure your scenario will be totally different...but anyhow good luck brother!

If it freezes just make extract, it sucks to lose an outdoor crop, but hash and edibles are awesome!
Just my opinion,

/\/\/\ What he said. :-)

I think they'll be fine in the shed. It is insulated and warms up during the day so I don't think they'll get a hard freeze in there. If they do, I'll hash them up for tincture. I was planning to turn most of them into hash anyway. I'd just prefer to do that when they are fully ripe.

So far so good. I think I'll need to turn the heat on for them tonight. Forecast calls for 20s.

I need to get a picture before I pull them out of the shed. The Pandora's Box is so tall the top colas are bent over at the ceiling...

We are close to the foothills and have not hit freezing yet. Last night was 33.
Good thing, I forgot to put the tomato plant in the greenhouse last night and it is fine this morning.
