If you can move your grow tent into an already heated space you would not need a heater but if you are planning on keeping them in cold temperatures you do need to switch to an hps fixture or add a heater because plants don't grow very fast in the cold. You basically need to move the grow tent or stop gardening in the winter time when its more expensive and that does mean that sunlight is free but LED lights are not that expensive per month in electricity costs and neither is a heater if it is a small space. Heaters get expensive when you move beyond 3x3 and 4x4 spaces into larger spaces.
