How important is the temperature..

Make sure that you keep constant watch of how high and low your temperatures are getting and adjust accordingly. Any serious highs or lows can cause delayed growth and decrease yield.

Here is a link that explains what happens to plants in cold temps:http://howplantswork.wordpress.com/2010/01/07/how-plants-survive-the-cold-or-not/
The part about sugar was kinda neat.

Thanks, thats my concern... although i have auto lowryders so if i want i could leave the lights on 24/7 apparently, is this true or is it still better to cut back to 12/12. My problem with a space heater is the high ceilings, and with fucked bones and not wanting to involve anyone else i wont be able to construct a lower ceiling there for i might find myself heating the top of the room wil the bottom is only catching rays and no getting immersed in the warmer air. thanx 4 ur advice.

shouldn't have to switch to 12/12 then. if they autoflower leaving the light on longer is better for yield.

Yeah ok, but ive been told that the ballast for my light needs a rest too, so im probably gonna stick with 18/6 cycles all the way to harvest.
