I am using a little mini space heater with a fan blowing on it. The power for this heater is controlled with a Programmable Line Voltage Thermostat installed near the canopy level in the box. Sweet, Simple and pretty cheap to implement.

If the temp between lights on and off is more than 10F, you run the chance of the plants stretching so much that you will only get buds, but not any colas.
