HELP- late arrival of bare root hazelnut plants-zone 5!

I
have the roots soaking in cold water and the pot
ready.
By "wrap the pot in plastic"- put the pot part in a garbage bag and wrap it
loosely around the the pot, leaving the dirt and plants exposed? or
putting the whole thing in a garbage bag and tying
the opening closed?
WRAP THE PLASTIC AROUND THE BASE OF THE PLANTS,
LEAVING THE PLANTS
EXPOSED.
Do I need to watch if the garage
gets below a certain temperature and move the plants temporarily
inside?
And I probably won't have to water again
till I start moving them outside, right? (that's what the plastic is for, to
prevent water loss?)
Thanks!
NO
AND YES, YES.
YOU
SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. OF COURSE, IF IT GETS TO FIFTY BELOW ALL BETS
ARE OFF.
