Python Pandas Group by date using datetime data

You can use groupby by dates of column Date_Time by dt.date:

df = df.groupby([df['Date_Time'].dt.date]).mean()

Sample:

df = pd.DataFrame({'Date_Time': pd.date_range('10/1/2001 10:00:00', periods=3, freq='10H'),
                   'B':[4,5,6]})

print (df)
   B           Date_Time
0  4 2001-10-01 10:00:00
1  5 2001-10-01 20:00:00
2  6 2001-10-02 06:00:00

print (df['Date_Time'].dt.date)
0    2001-10-01
1    2001-10-01
2    2001-10-02
Name: Date_Time, dtype: object

df = df.groupby([df['Date_Time'].dt.date])['B'].mean()
print(df)
Date_Time
2001-10-01    4.5
2001-10-02    6.0
Name: B, dtype: float64

Another solution with resample:

df = df.set_index('Date_Time').resample('D')['B'].mean()

print(df)
Date_Time
2001-10-01    4.5
2001-10-02    6.0
Freq: D, Name: B, dtype: float64
