I would say 65 - 71 for optimal root growth
and 77 - 85 for plant/leaf growth

under 60 is not ideal for growth

just my impression ;)

Andy, you do very well in the greenhouse and it sure helped last season with that massive hail storm!
Question,,,, how do you keep the temp at 75 during July and August? Fans?

AGs will be similar to Cucumbers or Tomatoes in their temperature preferances.
