There is optimum temps of course.
My personal experience tells me a few things. I cut my teeth outdoors guerilla growing brick seeds. A lot of sativa's. Most have handled cold weather just fine, even in the 20's.
Do I think you need to grow in cold conditions? No. I do however think that cold spells effect the buzz. I personally think bud that has been hit by cold has a better buzz.
50's at night wouldn't worry me a bit. I've seen many a plant keep a trucking in colder temps.
Another thing is how fast they warm up with lights on.
I agree that cannabis has optimum temps to grow in. I'm also saying don't discredit the positives that cold imparts on cannabis.
No plant that has endured twenty degree weather and 'multiple hard frosts' during early to mid flower is going to be something that I'm going to smoke, period -- especially a sativa, which often tend to be leafier anyway. I grow for high-grade buds, not trich'd out leafy crapola.
If you or others enjoy the high from buds (if you can call them that) grown in cold weather, fair enough, but the final product isn't going to something harvested from a plant that has lived up to its full potential.
