I grow in a shed outdoors and although not ideal I have swings of up to 20 degrees somedays and I've had some pretty decent harvests out of it.
    thx for the help!

    the reason i want to know this information, is because i dont want to rely on the plant to tell me if theres a problem. With my goal being maximum production, the less stress the better

    Just try and keep the ambient as close as you can between lights off and on. Or you'll confuse yourself with to many different readings from different parts of the plant. Steady temps and plenty of airflow will see you right mate good luck
