Is 64-66 deg too cold for vegging stage?

Hi again BB. It's definitely on the low end. In my experience growth will slow. Established plants will do better than seedlings and clone cuttings, but it's not a good thing for them either. Especially with the babies there's more danger of root rot because roots are sitting in chilly water, growth and transpiration as well as evaporation is slower, and roots stay wet longer. For young plants my temps are around 80 which may be a tad high but I like it. I like to always keep temps above 70. I'm not by any means an expert on this- this is just my observation.

Glad ya said that so I am putting in a old ceramic heater that screws in like a light bulb, from my old pet iguanas cage, hes gone now so gonna reuse the heat and try to save it, I also drained the water from the drip pan where theres alot of roots because they were starting to look bad. but now it seems to be perking up a bit.

Right now the closet is steady at 70 and the plants temp is at 70 and its sprouting alot better now and the lower leaves are starting to grow again.
