Lower temperatures equal slower metabolism and slower growth.

Conversely extremely high temperatures (over 35 degrees Cecilius) also cause plant metabolism to slow (again resulting in retarded growth).

The "Optimal" window for plant growth is considered to be between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius; this however, is determined by the type of plant and how it has evolved in its natural environment (i.e. genetic and environmental factors).

Because if it is too hot or cold the plant(depending on what type) will die.
