not true, mine is typically 80-84, it's very difficult for me to keep them down yet i still have great growth.
if you add co2 temps 84+ are needed

water is absorbed primarily in the roots, so the rate the plant is able to absorb it at is determined by the root structure and size of the stems. You're on the right track though with temps dehydrating a plant that doesn't have an adequate infrastructure to replenish water fast enough. The leaves droop to try to shade parts of themselves to prevent increased water transpiration.

My plants grow in a cab that averages 85F lights on and are growing great, but probably would do a tad better in the mid 70's.
