If that is lights out, then it sounds pretty nice. I would go with a little smaller bubbler, but she'll grow into it. Do you have any circulation fan moving her around?

General Rule for temps. If you are comfortable in your room in shorts and shirt so are your plants. Not to mention the low temps lead to extremely high humidity.

The low temps don't allow the stomata to open, which leads to the plants not being able to transpire water or absorb co2.

i understand this :)

but they don't breath co² lights off, and my day temp is 27°c ..... I don't know what this is in Fahrenheit sorry .

is 65°f too low ...... Is it worth trying to raise it?

Yes, plants still need to breath when lights are off. You are "suffocating" them when temps get that low. The stomata opens for gas exchange. The plants intake oxygen and outtake c02 during light off.

Shoot for 70 lights off, 75-80 lights on.

Your humidity is too high for lights off, especially if the plants are carrying heavy dense buds. 60% rh with lights on is ok, but I think optimum rh in darkness to avoid bud rot and mold is 35-45%. Reservoir temps do not need to be that cool (65-68F) but that is really just fine on the cool side.
Have fun.
