Growing under lights

Posted by calimurray zone 5 (My Page) on

I got a three season room where I have a garden started I am using LED lights and my plants have a slow but steady growth, I was wondering what the best temperature would be for maximum growth. It stays about 70 degrees in there all winter long.

I got morning glory, hybrid cucumbers, tomatoes, herbs, enchantment mix, radishes, garlic chives,sugar snap peas growing.

If you getting a slow but steady growth, be happy with that. The temperature is fine. Don't push your plants cause they could push back.

Generally, 70-76F is best. Relative humidity should be 48 to 57%. With low humidity, add more CO2. Typically, raising the temperature lowers the humidity.
