That’s a fair plant that man , I’m running autos because I’m growing in my garage and when lights go off it’s bloody freezing ,
So running autos I leave the lights on 24/7 so the temps aren’t dropping ,
I have some photo seeds I really fancy having a go with in the warmer months so might give em a go when the lights can go off and temps don’t fall down in an hour

Mate get yourself a heater. Im in a similar position to you, outdoors in a shed. I never wanted to buy a heater because I felt I didn't need one or its another thing to worry about. I use it with the ecotechnics controller. Although it may cost you more to run you may get better bud. As we know some people argue that plants need their rest too and some that say in the more northern regions of the hemisphere they have 24/7 daylight etc etc. Just my 2p worth anyways.
This is the first time Im growing photos over autos. I can't really compare it to my previous autos as the environment was different (i.e. shit). Now ive got a proper tent with some environmental control and although the plants did suffer a bit, I think it will be at least 80% better than my autos I did.
Im going to run into problems with drying as im doing it in the shed also in this cold so may swap out fan heater for oil rads in theory to cut out the "dry heat".
