Coldest Temperature Possible for Fruiting

Hi, I was wondering if someone could tell me what the lower extreme of temperatures is for fruiting cubensis. Would 68-70 be too cold? Would it be extremely time inefficient (ie they will fruit but they will grow slow?) I understand that 74-75 is optimal, but need some information regarding this. Thanks for any input regarding this.

temps go down, things slow down.
as long as it doesnt freeze its fine. cubensis have been found in the wild when temps get down into the 40s.
68-70 is perfect. you won't even notice a difference between that and 74-75... its like a day or less, time-wise, when all is said and done you're good to go
matter o' fact, this was grown at 68F:

They'll pin into the fifties, even indoors, but slower. It shouldn't take 2 months at 60, but it will take longer than at 70F, which is nearly perfect. RR

I have to say I have many times seen pins/fruiting stall at temps in the fifties, this may be strain related but FYI anyway.
