Default Few noob Questions
Hello,
How is everyone today? Im a little new to this site but i had a few quick questions.

What is the coldest temp my plants can endure before it stuns their growth? they are about a week into flowering. The prob is they are in a basement and winter is coming around. Im only using a 150w MH atm and it does not produce very good heat. the temp now is 68*. Should i use a space heater if it drops more?

Second I ran into a little speed bump and had to flower them about 2 weeks early. I know this will greatly effect my yeild, but will this hurt the potency or pose any other threats?

Third, If the temp is to low im using a fan inside to keep air circulating, but i feel its adding to the coldness. Should i try removing the fan if its to cold?

Thanks for any help you guys may have and i hope to see many of you in the future.

68 is not to cold as thats in the lower ideal temps you might as it gets colder put a small space heater in the room but make sure its plenty of distance away from your plant and it will not hurt your flowering over 2 weeks your talking very little diffrence in yeild good luck dont let the temp get below 65 if possible keep it in the 70s range

I see no problem with using a space heater. I have one in my closet set to come on when the temp drops below a certain point. I don't point it at the plants but it is close by.

Would a space heater effect the humidity?
