It's in the basement, so it is naturally cool all year, the light fixture heats it durring the day.

In the winter it can be a pain, even with the light the temp only gets to 60F in the day. The basement gets to 49F in the coldest part of the winter. (at night)

sounds like you need to sport a space heater..

My parents say it would be a fire hazard.


It's their house so I can't complain too much, at least most of my plants seem to like it anyway, even if they grow a bit slow in the winter.

I have the same type of setup in my basement found in this thread http://terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120959&highlight=grow+room
I use a heater with no problems so far, just make sure the plastic isnt anywhere near it. Looks good btw, any pics from the outside?

I'm not sure I even have room for a heater in there without it being near the plastic.

From the outside it is pretty much 4 shower curtains held together with cloths pins on a modified shower rack.
