My plants are still maturing, the hairs arent turning orange, and the buds are small. Problem is, is that its getting down to about 3 degrees at night. Should i just harvest my immature plants or wait?

you can cover your plant with a large clear plastick bag at night,it will only give you a bit of protection,but i dont think there is anythink else you can do????

Stand next to it and breath on it 24/7. Your body heat will warm the plant and yuor breath will give it extra co2. VV

you can get some of those cheap hand warmer things...OR put a lightbulb under the plastic and anounce to the world you're trying to keep a pot plant from freezing!

keep checkin the weather, where i live it was 2`C the other night.. lookin at the forecast now its only gunna drop down to 10`C anytime in the next week.. try to keep the plants outside (provided they're planted, just bring em in if they're in pots) and let them finish.. i always try to keep them out rather than harvesting, i love watchin them buds swell during the last few weeks of growth

Okay so im convinced my plants will be fine, it isnt going to drop below zero where i am. Its gotten close though, around 2 degrees... One plant is about a meter and 15 cm high. The other is about a foot, but it kind of snapped in half when it was a sprout and repaired itself. I planted them early July so theve been growing for just over 2 months.
