some of us dont have the means of controlling temps and humidity so we have to rely on a bit of luck and the fact that nature tends to kick in and give a helping hand. Plants are very Resilient buggers and tend to adapt to their surroundings. Mine go from 75 degrees down to 50 and 60 at night coz I dont have much heating in my home and also the humidity is up and down coz its always raining here. Im not saying there aren't ideal temps but its not an exact science and mine always grow fine infact I've grown one in the kitchen window before now and it was a lovely plant with soil from the garden, in my young and reckless days lol. Plants can take a fair bit of stick, your worst enemy than anything else are bugs and disease. These are your main natural predators.
