i was using lime as a plasticiser in a motar mix for laying bricks for a wall now its become colder im adding feb wintamix, will using lime make the motar weaker in the frosty weather even tho im using feb. I dont want to stop adding lime as this will alter the colour of the dried motar. The reason im asking is that on grand designs it stated using lime in freezing conditions could cause crumbling.
