Weather is unpredictable. It would suck to have a grow short circuited because you didn’t have a heater.
Even a cheap one is better than none.
Not sure what strains are available to you but it goes without saying an Indica will tolerate cooler temps better.

That heater I shared link to if you have it run the full 1500 watts for every 6 hours is 12 cents. So 12 hours in a night would be 24 cents a day.

Are you running your HPS 24/0 during veg?
if so, cut it down to 18/6 and you’ll pay for the heating cost easily.
Seriously, no cannabis thrives in UK temps in December.
I imagine it’s gonna get lower than 55° F and that’s really the lowest they’ll take without showing stress.
If it gets into the 40’s for any period it won’t make it.

And that would put him back to 12 cents a day to run that heater. Mann we are good bud!
