so she's about 40 days into flowering. And I live near Michigan and the temps are getting very low (around 40 at night) my question is how long do you think until the earliest I can harvest. This my first outdoor grow and man I tell you outdoor grows are much slower than indoor IMO atleast. Then my 2nd question is will this cold weather slow the growth or turn this plant into a hermi. Thanks in advance guys.

another month to go

as the pistols have yet to recede

perhaps it may go better if you bought her inside at night

take a very large chunk of the root zone to a very large pot

water when light and above all keep her on the same times of dusk and dawn

good luck

So basically you're saying cold temps will affect her. If it will then I guess I have no choice but to reroot in a pot but I want that to be my last option simply on the stress alone but also because she is flowering so slow and a reroot will only make it longer. This is my own fault though I didn't plant this WW until mid June lmao.

She looks like an indica. She should do fine in cold temps. I have a sativa that might not make it to harvest because she locked out P (phosphorus).

Yea I'm thinking I'll leave her out, it's just so much stress to move her inside ( more than moving a plant outside imo). I did do some research and it's mixed opinions some say 45 degrees and some said they leave out until 25 so idk. But you sure a indica?? I was told this was WW which is a heavy sativa.? Hmm

right now its -1 and snowing like mad for the next two days so i know the fear of cold i made a crappy greenhouse in hopes it will work with a lil heater you would be shocked how much this plant cant take i think im past the point of pulling her out the ground and potting her

I have one that's been through 2 frosts now 26-29° Temps and she's still going! Regularly have Temps in the 30s at night here in Maine. Yes, it slows the growth, but the biggest worry would be bud rot. If she's wet in the morning just go shake her off

Hit 24 last week killed my vegitables dead. absolutely froze the last of the mites.
Some leafs were drooping ,ast night at 33, had frost all over.

Pot plants are great, they shit out crystal's to protect. rain on the other hand makes me feeeer

Ill take a good frost, but it can damage tissue and then the mold can start.

Not an indica, you have a hybrid, probably should have gone with indica. Your plant date is irrelevant to when she will finish. No chance you'll have time to finish her properly outdoors in Michigan without a greenhouse.
