My grow fridge use to stay under 80f but now it is staying at 83f is this too hot?

My fridge is in the basement which is freezing in the summer with the ac on but now that it is cooler outside my wife turned the heat on and my basement is much warmer so it is f@#kin up my temps. Will my girls be fine at 83f

The ideal temperature for the light hours is 68 to 78 degrees fahrenheit and for the dark hours there should be about a 15 degree drop in temperature. The growing room should be relatively dry if possible. What you want is a resinous coating on the leaves and to get the plant to do this, you must convince it that it needs the resinous coating on its leaves to protect itself from drying out. In an extremely humid room, the plants develop wide leaves and do not produce as much resin. You must take care not to let the temperature in a dry room become too hot, however, since the plant cannot assimilate water fast enough through its roots and its foliage will begin to brown out.

If you've got supplementary c02 kicking in the room then 83°F is perfect. If not, it's a bit hot and is possibly stunting the plant's growth. Try to bring the temps down if you can:leaf:

you'll be fine. my flower room averaged 95 degrees for a bunch of grows. it wasn't ideal but the plants did fine and the crops were decent. if i grew outside, it'd be 110 average during the summer. i've seen outdoor plants here, they look great!

the hotter it is the more you water and higher the chance of lock out

if you dont want this

GET DRIP CLEAN stops problems from lock out, its a salt destroyer .2ml a gallon very low dilution and 1L bottles are cheap, also lower your nutes if your have to water everyday

I have this powerful little computer fan that i mounted to blow right on the bulb and my temps lowered to around 78f.

Thanks for responding
