How to do deal with the current heat??

yes, yes and yes. I have a 5,000 btu that I run for just my lighting cycles and I could keep my temps way too cold if I wanted too. If you are using a tent, you want to make sure that you are running ducts and fans for intake/out take air. you plants need oxygen! Also, if you have air cooled hoods you might as well take advantage. Think about the small stuff before you drop another couple hundred bucks for an AC!

I currently don't have that yet.

im running a 10k btw for a 400w light. temps stay at 76.
