Default Expected temperature drop

So, since the weather has been so nice I took many of my orchids out - specifically those that could withstand temperatures into the low 55F range and lower. When I did it, I knew we were not past the frost date and things might change - and they have.

Starting tomorrow, temperatures are expected to drop to 51F then 40F as the lows with 72F and 57F as the highs. The projected temperatures go between 45F and 51F as low's after that in the 10 day forcast.

So, I'm assuming that I should bring everything in that "on average" cannot take anything below 45F. "On average" refers to the Baker culture sheets average temperature for the months or general recommendations people have given me.

Yeah, this is me being lazy and not wanting to bring them back in! LOL... They look so great outside!!!
