I have read a few different things about what people believe is the best water temperature in an rdwc setup. The range seems to be from 60-68 degrees. If I can keep it at 60 is this best? Low 60's? Mid? High? Obviously this is assuming I can get it this cold, just curious what the plants like best

60 degrees is just a bit too cool, If you can maintain temps in the high 60's and never higher than 75 degrees, ( a little too warm), you should be fine! :)

I like 65ish but have played with as low as 58 with no ill effects. Under 68 but above 60 is probably going to be best.

Also, sub ground level usually stays around 55 degrees year round and plants grow awesome outdoors. Geothermal or something. I know it's not hydro but it's something to think about.
