Hey ICer's
This is my first time full hydro (Bubbling Tubs, plants in 3.5net pots in Coco)
I know that the root zone being too hot is a bad thing...this I know, mold, fungi, pathogens, etc...but what about too cold?
I know that cooler root zone temps will help some plants change colors, and also helps to battle hot canopy temps, but is there a such thing as being TOO cold? I mean of course 32*F is TOO cold, but what is the threshold?
I stuck my hand in one of my buckets today, then all of them, they're all cold! I'm guessing around 65-70*F... this IMO would be fine in an actual medium environment, but with exposed roots not so much...
Any comments on the temps being too cold or how cold IS TOO cold?
Thanks in advance!
