Temps in the 50's are fine (at night), as long as it gets up into the 70's during the day
only a hard frost kills these weeds.

you have untill first frost. check your local growing season on the farmers almanac

you can prevent the damages by growing indoors

So you'd only need watch the weather and cover your plant if 30's are forecast, in Florida.

i dont think you need top worry about the low temps in florida anything above freezing and they still will live so low 30's bigger plants and mpst indicas can take a few frosts even

I live in Tennessee and Ive had plants out in the high 20s but I think around 33 or 35 and they start stressing. Late season females will survive low temps

I'm confused what the question is... Are you saying you want to start growing now and have them finish in the spring? If so that won't work, unless you will be using supplemental lighting.

You can get any years weather data for most locales from the WeatherUnderground site, or other weather sites.
