Temperature and sunlight are more important growth parameters than nutrient concentrations. Duckweed grows across a wide temperature range â between 6oC and 33oC â but weâve determined that it grows best in a range of 18oC to 24oC.n the right conditions, this tiny plant can double its mass every 24 â 48 hours. Close control of the production parameters for duckweed is relatively easy in the small ponds and tanks favoured by backyard food producers.
For example, did you know that you should: 1  Plant spring bulbs when the soil temperature drops below 60Â° F. 2  Apply crabgrass control in spring, when soil temperatures reach 55Â° F for 4-5 days in a row. 3  Plant cool-season grass seed once soil temperatures are in the 50s  F.
