That is right where the temp needs to be. Like Weedy said, keep it below 90 and you'll be fine.

pot plants need the same temps as most reptiles, 65 to 85. the plant will slow growth and start stressin in the mid 90s and thc starts breaking down at 100

Wrong answer..... THC breaks down at 140 degrees.....

What Serapis is saying is that at 140 deg the THC activates and releases itself from the plant, and that would be the point it would "degrade" from the bud. Vaporisers work on this principle- controlling the temp that is applied to the bud will limit exactly what is released, a range from 140 to under 212 will activate and release all thc and cbd, but it will not burn the plant matter, thus saving you from smoking anything other than the goodies. Mista is right too- 140 is much more than the plant can handle.
In summary, everyone was right. My work is done.

Like everyone said, you're good up until 90....You really don't want to hit 80 unless you're running CO2, in which case you're at an optimum temp but it's not gonna fuck your shit up if you're not. What you really want to be concerned about is the temp difference when you're lights go off. If it's more than 10-13 degrees, you might run into PM issues....So if you're fluctuating between 80 and 85 during lights on and all of a sudden your temps drops into the 60's, then your humidity is gonna spike and in a matter of a week or 2, you'll start seeing PM

got my ladies under a 1000w, temps at a steady 86* while lights on, and 76* while lights off. And they seem to be doing just great

I don't know about you, but at eighty five degrees, I'm thinking it's getting pretty warm and my guess, your plants think so too. Your skin should tell you how your room feels, if it feels warm to you, it feels warm to your plants. At eighty degrees the stomata on your plants start closing, it's pores. Now imagine if it was eighty five and your pores stopped working and your couldn't sweat, just think of how hot your would feel. Your girls feel the same way. Personally I don't like my room to hit the low eighties. I also think heat stress beside slowing the growth of your plant is a major player in causing a plant to hermie.

when you grow outdoor your co2 levels are way high and your plant can handle it. 85 is to hot for indoor i dont even run my veg room that hot

More often than not, especially in homes and energy efficient buildings, co2 levels are higher indoors than out.
