For the vegetative cycle the humidity is a little low, 45-70% early on is great. Most people can't deal with higher humidity but the plants can. For flower cycle you bring the humidity back down to 25-45% the closer you get to harvest date the lower the humidity should go. High humidity can cause problems but it's worth the trouble imo. Sulfur burner is a good thing to have on hand incase you have mold from high humidity. It kills it fast with out harming the plant or you when you smoke it.

The 92f temperature is high and you need to bring it down you are running a chance of a hermie. Watch out for male flowers on the lower parts of the plant first.

You are looking for temperatures 72-85 as a safe range. Below 64 the plant will slow in growth. It's best to keep the temperature swing (24 hour average) less then 8 deg f change. Most can't do that but just do the best you can. There are even times of the year when I can't do that my self but it's still good information to know.

Decrease the temperature of your fresh air source.

Add an intake fan, and/or add another or more powerful outflow fan.

Make sure the outflow is directed away from the intake.

Move ballast and air pumps out of the space.

Are you using an air cooled hood with a good blower and glass cover?

How about adding a window AC unit or even a protable AC unit?

Not sure if you budget allows but those are quick and easy answers.
