Following because I have the same question! I figure if my power goes out I’ll definitely move my plants away from the cold windows but otherwise I’m not sure what I’d do.

I think as long as the power doesn't go out for days the plants should be fine... but if your plants are on a window seal just put a towel or blanket over the windows. They should be fine even if its a few days. I crack my windows open for fresh air and i live in the rocky mountains of Utah. My plants are fine.

I’m in NE PA and we have a generator we run. So we hang a blanket over the inlet to the stairwell to the second floor, then hook up a free standing electric heater to keep the 700sq foot 1st floor warm. We start out with the propane powered range with a pot of water on it for the first hour after that we go to the generator \& elec. heater ( hope this helps) BTW I also have to worry about 3 Bearded Dragons to keep warm as well.

I usually toss light blankets/sheets over the plant shelves and then panic about my fish tank not having power. It's kept everyone alive so far lol
