Ok my 4 babies are in a grow box in a basement with a 4x2 T5 light and six 12 volt pc fans 4 blowing cool air in 2 blowing air out. My problem now is that since the weather is colder now my basement is really cold now so with the basement being cold my grow box is cold. My problem is if I cut the fans off in the grow bow my babies will burn cause there about 2 inches away from T5 but if I leave the fans on the box gets really cold. What can I do I'm scared there going to freeze to death? I was planing on adding six 32w 6500k lumens CFL's ( 2 per plant) will that help keep some warmth to them?
 
probably should have planned ahead for that one lol... should have them in a conditioned space. Cold weather stunts growth alot. Also should get a hygrometer
 
Easy fix. Get one of the oil-radiator heaters. You can get one for about 30 bucks and it will completely warm up a room.
They are also really safe. No flames or flamable liquids, most have a shut off if it tips. Place it close to your intake fan and it will suck off the warmth and distribute it through your box, nice and cozy.
 
50-60 isn't that bad either. Like I said Sub 40 is when you want to start worrying. 50-60 is going to bring out the strains color, especially in late flower. I wouldn't worry about it.

Edit-
Insulate the box from the floor, Turn off the intake fan at lights-off, use a heater like
suggested above.

Wow can't believe I didn't think of that. I just plugged my intake fans up to my timer. So when the lights shut off so will the intake fans. Only one that will be still going is the outtake fan.

Yes that's what my brother told me about the blue widow. He said that when my blue widow hits flower with the temps being cool it would bring the pretty blue and purple colors out.
