I just speak the truth from experience.

If I grow under lights in the garage in the winter it isn't that much different that where you live.
The lights are on in the day time and go off at night.
Under the lights they are around 70F or so at night they are down to 50F 60F or so but not all the time.
16 hours a day for the light.
I bottom water and let it dry out between fillings.
They do not stay wet all the time.
In my opinion and the opinion of many other people that have seen them in person they are killer kick a$$ plants.
Around 100 watts of light per square foot.
You simply cannot let that soil suck up water all the time and stay wet in a cold environment.
