start crying when your night temps dip into the low 30's high 20s your good to go for a while longer bro
 
not below about 28 and you'll be fine. watch the weather for hard frost forecast.
Thanks for the fast replys, before i could even fix it. My bad:eyesmoke:

Anyways, i was thinking of letting it go for another 2 weeks maybe more perhaps 3. I will try and get a picture of the other plant tommorow, it has like purple hairs on the bud and also purple stems.

I would let them go..

If you are in US, go to the local Radio Shack and buy a small microscope, they are around 12 bucks. Then come to the forum and do a search on trichomes, these are the indicators or "is it done yet?"

Looking close at the bud, you will see little balls on sticks with fluid inside, these are the trichomes. The little balls are filled with fluid that begins clear and then turns cloudy as the plant matures and as the progression continues, the little balls liquid turns an amber colour. Many try to find a balance of percentage amber/trichome coulour. I myself go for 20% amber and the rest cloudy.... then I pluck 'em. Only exception is multiple frost days in succesion coming, then I will pull after the second frost but 52 degrees is not anywhere near the panic temp!

Pics can't give a good indicator of the "degree of done" ..

Good luck!

from the looks of it they need 4 more weeks. i would just be patient if it starts getting below 30 i say think about pulling them.
