Is she ready, or getting close? Frost is coming

They predict frost here. Don’t know if I should try to cover her with some blankets, or just harvest her. Not looking for heavy coach lock. Do you think she is close enough?

Couple more pics of the whole plant and a cola help a lot. I definitely see some clear still but she can’t be too far off with a little amber showing assuming all other parameters are norm. What did you have it planned for another couple weeks?

I second that.

I was hoping for another week, we have frost but then back to 60s and 70s. This plant looks ripe to me on the outside, but those clear crystals… Idk

HUBBA ** HUBBA**. Damn son! I think my first post was right on, what a beautiful specimen. Very nice job!! As the entire pic suggests she still has a lil white in her but totally doable. If it were me (and I don’t know the extent of your coming weather) I would cover her if it was just a day of low temps coming and harvest in maybe 10 days. Regardless she’s pretty close if you don’t want that heavy high an extra week on top of those 10 days would bring. That’s my report…

Thanks man, I appreciate your opinion

That’s a BIG bush frost should be okay if it’s one or a week. You get a freeze a hard 32. I would take her down. You could cover her or let it ride it out. I got frost the other night left mine both outside and their fine with no cover… If you’re really worried water them the night before or in the am to wash the frost off the roots. You’re in the ground probably even more root protection to get through a frost. The am sun will help get rid of the frost.

I did notice the 2 nights we hit mid 40’s gave my leaves some purple. Next 10 days afternoon mid 80’s nights mid 50’s so I’m leaving my little girl out as long as I can. She’ll be last to chop this grow

Thanks. Right, it started to change colors after we hit 40s or a little below at nights. I got some pvc pipes over it, will put plastic on top for a cold night that is coming. Than it’s back to 60s and 70. Good luck to you too.

PVC pipes?? Building a frame for her? You do you but FYI you can just toss a tarp over it, blanket whichever.

Thank you

I need to build the frame anyways for my sativas that are almost 8 feet tall. They need 3 or maybe even 4 more weeks. This plant is right next to those sativas, so I am just putting 1 extra set of hoops. Very simple. I got gigantic piece of plastic, for commercial greenhouse, that will do the trick, I hope

Hopefully you recoup everything and not too many ppl involved. It sounds like youve invested some serious time and obvious materials. only seen that one close up but she looks healthy, vibrant and beautiful. You’ve dove in deep for inspections and how’s her density? Forgive for the questions but you can’t be new at this, You just happened to find this site so far into such a successful grow. Man you seem to be knocking it out of the park, that is so awesome man. Very happy for you, your gonna have some serious weight. You better have a bowl trimmer or shake bag. LoL

High,
I have a similar situation. Almost ready and the rain and cold were upon me. I covered with a painters plastic. I left it on for a few days till rain disappeared. Frost is lifted and rain is not In forecast, so I took the cover off. And let the SUN get them. Harvest is near
