HEAT

[setup is a bucket grow; intake fan on lid blowing on plant; 3 10w LEDs, 2 cfls(all 2700k); I have a hole cut out the side for passive outtake]

idk why but out of the blue, the temp jumped from around 79-81 avg to 85-87?! The thing is, there's no cause for the effect. Nothing changed.. at all..

As of now it seems it's still healthy but I'm worried that it's gonna fry it and kill it. It's my first grow and I'm on 5th day of 12/12.

Oh and the humidity is a constant 20-25(with lights on). I put a cup of water in there but nadda.

Thx in advance!

Not sure what you mean by bucket grow as that's pretty vague, but if you're doing a "space bucket" type of thing and your fan is on top pulling air in, turn it around. Exhaust the heat and let fresh air come in passive. That should help.
