I don't grow these but a couple of suggestions/ideas.

1. I don't think a "frost" would hurt a redwood.

2. This time of year growth will slow on many species, kind
of a summer break, especially if it has been warm/hot.

3. Tell us how you are keeping the tree, where located,
container, size, watering, fertilizer, etc.
