60 cold?????????
ROTFL
no cold is 23..which it is here! (sorry I hope I diddnt offend you)
you could add some small heater packs (like $.80 at walmart for 2)

yeh, 60 is darn near hot for this time of year. I'd be outside in t-shirt and shorts.... I don't think you will have a problem. When it freezes, then there's a problem.

what section are these heater packs in? like backache-heat packs?

I hope you are shipping these over night with those heater packs.... The ones I use for hunting only last 12 hrs. Im not sure if you are able to find some extended timed ones or not.

 

[blazeyreef]

of course... I was thinking that was a given though...opps sorry

The heat packs really aren't necessary until you get under about 30F. Once you get close to or below freezing it's best not to even try shipping, unless you and the recipient don't mind losing the plants.
