So 57-59 degree ground temps wont give me fantastic root growth but if the plant has sufficient nutrients and water then how can roots be my limiting factor? Are they an energy storage organ? I do know cytokines are created in the roots and probably other important plant chemicals, so maybe roots dont just gather water and nutrients maybe they also manufacture chemicals like the leaves do.

Well... optimizing the roots... sounds like a good project for next year. For now I'm happy with my progress on figuring out the leaves.
