Northern Lights Auto in garage for a couple of days

[Dorian2]

I have 1 NL auto and pepper and tomato seedling in the garage because of an unexpected snow storm here in Northern Alberta. Overnight temps next couple of days are-2°C and we've had a bunch of snow today. I'd guess a couple of days won't be a big issue but I'd like some experienced insight....especially any "gotcha's." 3 weeks from seed.

Daylight is about 16 hrs. 5:30AM - 9:30PM. South facing backyard so a good 8-10 hrs direct sun.

Beautiful green color there.

is the garage insulated? looks like small pots so if the temps in the garage go below freezing for sustained periods id wrap the pots and mulch the top of the soil. or a heater. small pots wont handle sub zero well.

Insulated with a heater. I kept it a 18°C the last 2 nights. Hoping to get them out in the sun today as it's warming up again. Over night lows for Thurs and Fri are 0°C, so I'll haul them in later this evening and tomorrow. And we did cover the flower beds that are already planted outside with blankets. I was a bit worried about the lack of sun, but the Auto, peppers, and tomato seedlings are all fine. Just dormant.

Just a quick update. Weather still sucks so I dragged the seedling and Northern Light back into the grow tent for a day or 2. Hopefully the plants are too young to have bug issues at this point. Keeping my eyes peeled though.

Another quick update. We've had nice weather in the mid 20's for a couple days. Looks like the rest of the week much the same. I decided to top the Northern Lights to prove proof one way or another...if the HST thing is still "a thing". Just having a bit of fun and checking shit out on this one.

This is when I topped 2 days ago.

This is what she looks like today.

Next pic might be interesting when I post again.
