Its Snowing!!!

Ok, I planted about 6 plants two weeks ago, which is when I was told to plant them by a veteran grower, and the temperature was up in the 70's and was getting really nice, but now its snowing and the temperature has dropped to about 30 degrees in the middle of the day... Will that damage the plants at all, or should they continue to grow??

Also the temp is supposed to go back up to the 60's and 70's again tomorrow... will the constant change in temperature damage them?

No, it shouldn't hurt them much...if it warms and stays warm they will recover.

Good luck!

Thanks man. I really hope they grow well. If they do I plan on starting a larger crop next season or even bringing it indoors and using hydroponics.

My 2 week old seedlings to cold down to 42 degrees for 3days an It got to em , the first ridged leaf is all droopy an problay wont make it, but the 2nd set an new growth look ok so it shold be ok, but it was hard on em.


can u cover em up with a blanket or a old cooler or somthing to keep the frost off em?

i dont know man, its way too early where i live (im gonna guess you live on the east coast, because weve been having deceivingly nice weather here in new england). that vet grower must be used to losing half his plants to frost, or maybe he puts plants that are a month or so old that can handle some stress

No I live in arkansas, and it only got cold for one day. its already back up into the mid to high 60's... my friend told me to plant when i did because it was supposed to be the last frost of the year, but then we had a freak cold front show up, and we shouldnt have anymore cold days like that.
