I thought I had experienced just about every way to screw up a plant over the past few years, but I just discovered a new one. I just completed a new flower room in a detached garage, and due to Stoner Electricians and a difficult Inspector, the flower room was about a month behind schedule. I had a veg room designed to accomodate 4 weeks of veg, but due to the delays, I had plants in there at 8 weeks of veg. Finally got the lights hung and fans mounted, time to get these girls out of my house, as veg room had become a jungle. My garage is about 50ft from my house. Unfortunately, the night I started moving them, it was -4 degrees outside, next day wasn't going to be much better with highs in single digits. I was concerned, but figured 20 seconds in cold won't hurt them, what could go wrong? I quickly moved about 22 plants out to the new flower room. About the time I got done, I noticed the leaves were curling up on the plants I had brought out, I mean you could stand there and watch the leaves curl and corkscrew, never seen anything like it. Apparantly I flash froze them. Here is a pic of a Strawberry Kush. I will spare you the anguish of viewing the other 21 plants, these plants were vibrant healthy girls when I walked them out, here is a pic less than 24 hrs later.

Next time use 4 plant stakes and slip 3 heavy duty garbage sack over them. The stakes keep the sacks from touching foilage.
