OK so I have the lights on during the night hours so that I don't fry my plants. My median overall temp USED to be 80 degrees- 76 low and 83 high.
I decided to buy a stand alone A/C unit for the closet to bring the temps down to finish out a crop.
Now the temps can get as low as 68 degrees in there during the light period. However, the dark period is during the daytime, so it hovers around 80 degrees.
Is this OK?
Do the plants trip out?
I read in an Ed Rosenthal book that optimum temps during the light period are between 70-80 and for the dark period 60-70.
Mine is backwards.
I know the obvious solution is to switch the cycle, but I can't, there are too many drawbacks in my situation for that.
Has anyone else done this?
