Frost survivors

I've got about 15 outdoor plants 3 of which are large and flowering, the rest are either clones or seedlings that should be vegging. I live in the northeastern U.S. and its fucking cold here.
Last night it was suppose to hit a temp of 9 degrees F, not sure if it did but it was under 20 for sure. This morning I woke up to a frost. So I grabbed the camera and took some pics. Had I done this half an hour earlier, the plants would have been covered in frost, but im lazy and got up late but you can still see frost on the plants. I've come to the conclusion that cannabis plants SHOULDN'T die over night do to climate change. Our temps. here went from the high 80's to the 30's and then lower overnight. Its been like this for a few days but theres a good amount of vegitation growing and a lot of trees have already sprouted leaves. I believe that the only real threat by frost is if it is recurring. So don't be scared about planting too early. Event the smallest cannabis plants aren't that vulnerable

Too bad dude

I can't believe you had these plants doing so well as of April. You should have covered them with a cloth cover at least. I'd say these plants will never do well.

if theyre already flowering then id assume you had them indoors which makes me wonder why you didnt keep em indoors? seems indoors climate would be better then 9F.... hopefully they pull through but they could be dead already and are just taking a little time to look it. youll know for sure in a few days

Yes they were indoors, normally i throw them out a little later to force flower them but do to complications in the home i had to put them out earlier than usual. A day after these pics i pulled them up and brought them back home because it started snowing and shit. Not enough to accumulate though. One that was flowering turned out to be a male so i pulled it but i still have the bushy one and one is still outside either dead or vegging. The wierd thing is that the seedlings seem to put up with this weather a lot better than the big girls. I can easily say though that if i left it out there it would have died, the leaves got extra droopy so i carried those fuckers like half a mile through the woods and back to my house.
