Winter is coming, but I have an indoor system. I tend to like my apartment to stay fairly cool during the winter months. I'm a bit worried that my plants won't take it well though. I've got some Tomatos, Kale, and bell pepper plants. Will they be okay down to about 10 degrees Celsius? 15 degrees maybe? :dontknow:

I don't have a lot of experience gardening, so I'm not sure what temperature ranges plants thrive at.

15C is pushing it for tomatoes and bell peppers, nothing will ripen and there wont be much plant growth. Kale would probably be ok though. Chard will do well at 10-15C, even a light frost doesn't worry it too much.

Okay cool, I'll try to keep it a bit warmer then. Thanks for the help!
