Photo transplanted into ground June 15th. Opinions welcome, trying to avoid bud rot.
Too early to chop?

Welcome to RIU. There are weeks to go, nowhere near ready. Chopping now will destroy all your efforts in my opinion.

Thank you for your welcome and advise. I was afraid that was the case. Time is running out on me. I will never make weeks with the cold nights. I will try and hang in.

How cold? Where are you at?

Ontario, 3 spotty frosts overnight last week.

Depending on where you are in Ontario you will be fine for a while. Temps rebounded today. I think you need a sustained 0c/32f to kill them, otherwise they will recover from frost when the sun comes up. Some strains are more sensitive than others but right now I say let er buck.

Would you consider the trichomes clear when you enlarge the pic? I thought they kind of looked cloudy?

Thanks, it got as low as 36 one night but it made it. Yes this week looks like I will cruise through but I was concerned with rain and cool nights. Growing OG and O understand bud rot is possible.

Trichomes are useless at this stage, pistols are still reaching out, until that stops there is no point in checking trichomes. These may help.
