Quick question on Rez/Control Bucket Temps

[Buzkill]

OK so during their noon feeding i took the temp in the buckets directly. 77.2°F Res temp was 67.4. Sooooo that being said, any ideas, thoughts, or maybe pie?
Do I need to work the res temp lower?
A few more things to know, i have some extra (not much) black hose for each bucket for expansion, grow baby grow, Control bucket temp was about the same as it was mid-feed.
It just finished feeding a minute ago and res temp was 68.9°F so I would assume (yeah I know) that the bucket temp had to be close to that as it just filled and drained.
They are beginning to spread a bit so what can I say but YIPEEE!!
So far so good. Thanks to all for the info and help.

PS any one got a good recipe for Pot Pie????

I been looking around and don't see this subject broached yet, so I'll broach it. I'm using the Ebb & Gro system. I have been using 2 lt bottles filled 2/3 with ice for rez cooling. Keeps the rez around 65°F that way. The problem is the the control bucket, which is closest to the plants, is a bit warmer (about 72°F). Should I be cooling the control bucket as well, or just it? Sorry if I sound a Rating: 5

If outdoor temps affect your grow room temp you can shift your light cycles to be off during the hotter times of the day. I'm using 14 hour light cycles from 9pm to 11am so the plants are dark in the hotter times of the day
