My adeniums cuttings are turning pale green after 2 days of them outside in here in chicago since it's nice outside. After cutting last season they all stayed active and grew more leaves under a grow light through the winter. Now they don't look so good. Is the nutrient deficiency or a lighting issue. I'm not sure how to cure these symptoms

did the temperature drop while outside to below 50° ?

for some reason cooler sustained air temperatures can turn leaves white

Yes this must have been what happened with the wind chill the temperature must have been right around 50. Thanks

How big is the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors?

Plants can also get damaged if the lighting conditions change radically instead of gradually. I've nearly lost a number of plants because I moved them into direct sunlight when they were not used to it.
