So my tent is staying between 64°-70° this should make flower take a little longer? Also I have this auto that is compact and seems tucking is really working well to expose bud sites. Wondering how this looks? Using a ffof mix and FF trio. Thanks

Welcome. I’m in Alaska so I know about colder temps. I’ve grown outside down to 50 degrees, thats when my photo period plants start wilting, Most of the summer averages about 60F/65F and they excelled. It’s now 20F so i grow indoor in a back room and tent. 64F as a low is fine as long as it rises during the lighting period. If you extend the lighting period the heat will likely go up. You will be fine. Plants adjust to the colder temps and might take a couple weeks longer overall. Some indicas will excell. Good luck

Thats where my temps usually sit with my autos and they always do fine. Thats why I’ve been running most of my grows during the fall and winter. I have more problems in the summer trying to keep the temps down.

You’ll be fine. One suggestion, is get a bigger light. The purchase will pay for itself in 1 or 2 grows!

It’s not in the tent with the light. I don’t know if you were going by the light you see that’s a just a house plant grow light or if you are saying in general better light is just worth it? I have a decent light right now but bday and Christmas are very close so hoping to get a second light of the same so🤞.

The reasons I was saying get a bigger light are better grow all around and more heat for your space.

For me, 64F was about the max bottom level where my indoor autos were not stressed.

Since it’s in an unfinished basement, I was able to tap into an above head heating duct and run a 3" insulated hose down to my tent and feed it in in the bottom.

It raised the average temperature by about 10 degrees which made a big difference in their growth.

You can see the metal hose coming in at the bottom center of this picture.

I am new as well. The first grow I had in my conservatory and fried the buds. Now inside the unfinished basement at 66-70F and they seem to be growing remarkably well. Just starting to make buds. I am hoping this works and are in the same boat with you.

My grows are typically ~64F in the Winter. Never had a problem with it, though it is pushing the lower boundary of ideal.

Indica strains apparently do better in cooler temps than sativas from what i’ve read. I think indica strains were developed more in the cooler hemispheres.

Cool thanks all. I have 2 girls weeks from harvest just seemed to have slowed way down. Pistils everywhere but just the tips are browning but not curling tight against bud. They also were started this summer so well into flower by cold temps. Good to know and I prefer indicas and that is what I’m growing atm
