What effect does heat/cold have on roots & above ground? So, what effect should I see in the roots and above ground growth with substrate temps at 90f, 85f, 80f, 75f, 70f, 65f, 60f, 55f, 50f, 45f, 40f?

Hey there so extreme cold will slow your plant growth ans can eventually kill the plant especially at freezing temps. I see the plants are partly outdoors partying with the tomatoes which lucky are much like cannabis, at this stage if you can keep temps between 70-85 with good humidity thats best, but even if you went down into the higher 60s that's ok too, with slightly cooler night temps. If your substrate can stay above 60 it'll discourage mold and other things. The plants and tomatoes are looking good. :) oh also a lot of your plants leaves look like they're "praying" which is a good thing. I think things are coming along great.

At 90 u would see effect on the plant e.g. wilting Browning drying edges at 70 is around perfect in my opinion and the lower you go your plant will slow down as the roots won't dry when colder and potentially causing root rot stunting the plant keeping it at a certain stage in till it either dies or temps pick up and struggle to start growing hope this helps tried to explain what would happen at different temps

Hi
Temperatures below 18 Degrees can stunt plant growth drastically, been there and done it.
Ideally what you are looking for is for your plants medium to be around 5-10 Degrees cooler than your grow room, assuming your grow room isn't too hot.. So don't exceed 28-30 Degrees and you will be fine. But also don't go below 18 Degrees or your plants growth will be stunted. Easiest way to put it.

Hi there! The perfect temperature for roots is around 75°F / 24°C and should always be a few degrees cooler than the grow room air temperature. Soil temperatures have a major impact on growth. Remember those plants are warm season annual with tropical origins. Having a too-cold soil will stress the plant and delay growth. I'll be around, good luck with these babies!

How much lower foliage should I remove?How much if any foliage or stray branches should I remove from the bottom of this plant? She's super healthy so I don't think it will be an issue with stress, but I don't want any undue stress. Should I just leave it? I'd like to avoid popcorn buds all together.

How do I drop my RH down when nothing works? Check Diary. Will defoliation be a good idea? Open tent door and leave it open?My 2x2 is starting to crowd. This is driving the RH to over 70%. Should I defoliate to help with crowding and RH? Or should I just leave it alone? RH in lung room is 48% Exhaust fan, high or low with a dehumidifier, doesn't work. What should I do? Defoliate? Thanks! Check diary.

Trimming/Defoliation late vegetation, just before flip to 12/12?I'm unsure about trimming/defoliation at this point: What's the goal for just before switching to 12/12? I've read to veg until your height is 1/2 to 1/3 the final height supported by the setup. I seem to have plenty of room still. How much do I trim under the canopy?

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!
