    Default Temp move to greenhouse

    Hi all. My ladies, all about 4 -6 weeks into flower are soon to be evicted (hopefully temporarily) and I am stuck for a new home.

    I was wondering would they manage a week or so in a greenhouse in the UK? Lowest predicted temps are 1c for the period they will be homeless. I am sure it wont be the best for them but I just need them to survive. ANy extra steps I could do to keep them warmer bar using a heater?

    Any advice on it would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers.

    Hi mate,

    You could kill them at those low temps. Anything under 10 degrees should be avoided.

    Ouch dude that sucks.

    Stick them in a Greenhouse and see if you can get the inside of the Greenhouse insulated a bit better. There is some clear bubble wrap stuff that I see folks use in Greenhouses. They cover the roof and side walls with the stuff. Failing that a 20l bucket of boiling water each night right next to the girls may help. My bigger worry is bud rot. The humidity is going to be sky high in the Greenhouse mate. If you have daily access to the greenhouse you could make a kind of cover for each plant, again that bubble wrap stuff would work well. Pop the cover over the girls each evening and get it off in the morning so that they can get some light.


    May be better to get hold of a loupe and see how far from harvest you may be. Don't think you will be ready yet TBH but...

    Thanks fore the replies guys.

    I intend to insulate the pots by putting soil around them which should keep the root temps up. I've plastic wrap I could wrap around them at night and will be able to access them during the day. Its a right royal pain in the ass. They unfortunately are no where near ready for harvesting, I'd have a pile of inert material.

    These keep frost off, not sure if they would help. Looks like rough time ahead for the girls sad to say.

    Good news, the girls have had a stay of execution which will give me time to prep a new home.

    Big muchas gracias for the help to all for their help.
