Based on my garden, plants love temps between 20-30°C (68-86°F). Anything outside that? You can kiss those lush greens goodbye!
Warmer temperatures generally speed up photosynthesis to a point, but if it gets too hot, the enzymes involved can get damaged and slow things down.
Temperature? More like Goldilocks syndrome: Not too hot, not too cold—just right keeps those plants chugging along.
