    Default Temperature issue

    Hi guys, using an 80w led about 12 inches above one plant. Humidity 60% but my temperature is rarely above 19 degrees. Is this sufficient for good growth or should I switch to a household bulb to increase temp.

    She sprouted about four days ago with two leaves also has a red stem, curious as she was potted in a rooter then straight into an 11litre lot with special mix so nutes not a problem till week 6.

    Ideally temps and red stem my question.

    Definitely want to get your temps up a handful of degrees mate, if you can add the other light I'm sure that'd help a bit.
    My nighttime temp is roughly what yours is. My day time temp sits around 25°c.

    I only have space for the one light. Small and compact. As for difference btn temps it pretty much 19-21 24 hours a day. The led is in 24 hrs and as temps are so low i dont even have the fan going yet.

    You think I should switch out my led then. I will post a pic soon. What size? Should I get just a normal lightbulb for the heat or a CFL?

    As you can see pretty small space and a pretty cool temp but humidity is fantastic

    Just put one in. Temp up to 24 now lowered my led down to about 10 inches. I know she is only sprouting but does it look stretched?

    Yeah, she's a bit stretched but lowering the LED will, hopefully, prevent any more stretch

    So guys this is day 15. Everything seems fine but should it look this way. I mean the leaves do not look typical. Have I done something wrong here?. It is an autoflower so I thought sex etc was a given.
    Am I overthinking this?
