Welcome dufurgirl

If you have access to straw you could pile some bails up on the outside wall of your bathroom. It would help allot. A small catalytic heater in the bathroom would be cheaper to run than your furnace and give off co2, just have to get a safe reliable one.

Thanks Jingo. It would be a pretty tall stack of straw it's our 5th wheel and it sits up high in the driveway. But that is a great insulation I used to use it years ago around the skirt of a trailer home I lived in back then. I figure if it gets too cold I will just remove the vent hose from the light and vent the heat right into the room. Harvest should be right before Christmas. Fingers crossed the temps don't go too low. Holy moly we got below zero in Washington State a few years ago in December.

Warm so far, I wish it was a bit colder myself, so all the outdoor bugs would be gone.

Thanks for the tag @Dudeski @DufurGirl what questions ya have with the HID lights?? Times to switch?? There are some growers that use the HPS start to finish,ime i use the MH for about 30 days then switch,,as far as nutes playing into it all,,i dont waste money on overpriced fancy bottles..one bag of GH Maxi bloom powder start to finish different strengths for different stages..cheap(about 15 cents per feed) , simple, and proven..its called the Lucas Formula/Ratio or a KISS method

three if my current plants,harvesting this weekend..tag me if you have any questions,ive been using HID for about three yrs now...peace

Wow @budelee those are beautiful. I switched to the HPS bulb and things changed up rapidly. Week 5 and we're budding up and had a growth explosion. Amazing to see the changes. I had already purchased the FoxFarms Trio and recently started the Tiger Bloom in 1/2 strength and added a bit of Magnesium and Calcium every other watering. These are the 4 ladies at 5 weeks from seeds going in the ground.

Those are awesome..and the trio is as good as any other,but with sutos,dont feed at full strength( u prolly knew that) ,it sounds and looks like you got a good handle on things..when you get your journal going,you can tag people in,and you have space in your signature are to make a shortcut/livelink so we can check it out!!!
