It's OK.

Best veg temps are 77-84, flower 74-79. If you are in flower now just try to get temps down further. Before I got control of my temp my rooms got to 90 much of the time, definitely a loss of yield in warmer temps but not a lot and no real change in potency, from experience. Everything just goes much smoother under 80.

You can do some simple things. Add a cool tube/air-cooled reflector with fan and ducting, light mover so you can use less lights therefore less heat, split grow room a/c, chiller with ice boxes, ect, ect. Just exhausting the room outside of the home does wonders.

Sorry I ment 82f
Are you taking the temp from the soil level, or the top, where the buds will be ?
Temps at top will be +6 to 12 f hotter...
The floor of my grow room is 56 f
The shelve the plants sit on, is 68 degrees
The soil level temp is 76 f
The top of my plants are 82 degrees...
The higher you are the hotter it gets ...
Good luck...

^^ He pretty much nailed it. 82 on the floor is not 82 up top, but I would say 82 is fine. Think about it like 82 is just a cool summer day in So Cal or Jamaica.
