Does the Cold Affect the Plant

Where im growing my plants it can get down to 30 degrees does that hurt the plant or affect the amount of resin it produces?

Sure does.

Unless you get your temp under control you might be better off drawing a picture of your plant and smoking the paper. Has it turned purple yet?

no it hasnt turned purple yet. what temperature should it be?

A plant is alive you can't freeze that shit.

if it regularly gets below freezing it can/will be very bad, it wont kill them outright unless it stays that way for a while but its gonna hurt them.

If you are growing out doors this is the wrong time of year...Good luck

I'm not growing outdoors im growing in a closet type thing but its very hard to get heat to. but what temperature should weed grow in?

70ish is best

60(50 is not advised but it will live if its the best you can do)-70 lights out 70-85 lights on

Major drop in temp will stunt root growth and generally fu*k things up

I laughed out loud. FUCK that was hilarious

Depending on what publication you read and what person you talk to, you'll find that most say the tempurature should be between 74-76 degrees, ideally.

Of course, plants can take much more heat/cold than that and still grow but it won't be optimally.

With that said, plants can be brought into extremem temps, say 15+ degrees and not die....provided it's not for any lenght of time. In other words, just because a plant was exposed to air at 15 degrees doesn't mean you've killed your plant.

For example, just yesterday a friend of mine transfered his plant from one house to another and the drive was 30 minutes. It was like 20 degrees and the plant is perfectly fine.

Many times I read posts with growers in a panic because something happened to their setup...such as the A/C shutting off accidently and the room his 105 degrees. As long as the plant has green still on it (not dried up dead leaves) it will make it. Same for the cold. If a plant is introduced to extreme tempuratures, it's ok...just as long as it's not for too long and the plant hasn't died.

In direct answer to your question, I have no idea how long it would take for your plant to show signs. Too many variables are missing such as the tempurature they're at and the lenght of time they're at that tempurature.

I hope this helps. If there is anything I can help you with, feel free to PM.

my temps in flower get to about the mid 40s in winter here at night in my flower shed. gets awesome purple and ive noticed faster budding.

Ive just started a thread in which you will see the effects of constant cold on a plant. I'm trying to use the slow growing growth to my advantage

Ideal would be in the 70s with no more than 10* variance. If you are an expert or master you may do the lower temps for purple plants.

At temperatures of 50 degrees F. or lower phosphorous uptake is inhibited, which is what causes the purple discoloration.

Ive heard the same for magnesium

Hopefully that doesnt spoil my little experiment

Bricktop do you have any grow journals here at RIU? I've not seen one
