I set up different test trays of Sarracenia seeds last November and left them outside. From what I have read, it's a good way to winter stratify the Sarracenia seeds and they will come up after the risk of freezing.
Well they just germinated a little while ago and I had a surprise freeze last night.
How can the weather say low of 42F and it's 28F?
I am not sure but seems freezing would hurt the young growth on any plant.?
It seems some of the seedlings that are further along are nice and green but maybe I lost some of the seedlings with just a root.? They have just germinated over the last few days.
So should I try to protect them from freezing at this point? And then put them out when no more risk of freezing? My gut instinct is to bring them inside. I just don't want to.
