Howdy folks,
I've been reading up for a while and am nearly ready to start my first indoor grow. I have a couple questions I haven't found the answer to here.
I'm growing inside in a closet, but I'm still concerned about temperatures. I live in the basement of an older house, so inside temps can reach the 50's at night. I could run a propane heater constantly in my room, but the expense is prohibitive.
Will my 400w lights keep my closet warm enough (2x3x6feet tall) or will the intake air cool things off too much? Should I run the light w/o the fan to increase temp, or is that asking for trouble? I can insulate the closet with rigid foam to keep the grow boxwarmer, but the intake will still be sucking cool/cold air.
Should I be concerned? What can I do? Is an average temp in the 60's too cool to grow? Any advice would be appreciated. BTW it's been down in the teens here for a few days! Brrrrrr!
Thanks all
