The dreaded winter grows. I feel your pain. I tend to run 24 hr veg to keep temps reasonable in winter. From my experience cold temps tend to cause short plants because they never tend to get that vigor from higher temps. All you can do is try your best the plants will adapt and make harvest. Keep it as close to 75 as you can.

Get the thermoforge. I have a little space heater outside a few feet from the tent, without it I’ll run 50% and my temp will be 73-75. Adding the thermoforge helped a lot and it helps keep everything from fluctuating too much so at night yeah I’m at level 7 and it sits 75 at 60+%. I have to wake up before the lights and turn heat down. I haven’t set up the sequences on my controller yet lol.

Easy fix to raise temperature is to raise the light a bit and increase intensity. It’s ok to let the temp get up to 84-86F in veg the last hour or two before lights off to help maintain a higher temperature after lights off for those few hours.

I am in the same situation so I chose to put a small space heater in the tent. I position it to where the fresh air intake comes through. It took me some time to dial it in with the exhaust fan but so far it’s been working.

I hope that helps.

I’ve done the same thing because I didn’t realize that my temperature was getting that low at night 58°. My seeds popped out of the soil on November 8th so it’s been around 11 weeks of slow growth but it all changed when I put the heater in and maintained a night time temperature of 78° and now I feel like the jolly green giant 🙃
