Ok, thank you! I read about using a thermal blanket, but not on colored concrete. So, hopefully, they will get the proportions right
Also, my concrete contractor said I do not need rebar in the 4" slabs. I called IMI concrete company for another reason, but asked their opinion about having no rebar. They said I didn't need it either. I could use a fiber mesh.
What are your thoughts?

It's certainly its preferable to pour concrete with warmer temps but that's not always possible and stay in business or meet schedules for all sorts of construction.
Concrete can be poured in colder weather and cure properly by adding calcium chloride to the concrete mix. The calcium chloride will keep the water from freezing and accelerate the curing of the concrete in cooler temps. Im sure that if necessary, this is what the concrete guys will do. The only thing the guys need to be careful about is adding too much of it.
