Thanks!
You think it is higher temps?

My conclusion was - combination of higher light and temp difference between day and night:
with lights on during day 25C, at night - lights off, opened door 20C

But I don't know for sure of course.

I just raised average temps about 5F and it made a very noticeable difference. I wish I could get day temps up to 80 but that would be difficult in the apartment.
