Default Fan setup question CFL grow~!
Hi all! I am currently growing 6 girls NL strains under 24 26 watt CFL bulbs. My humid is around 55~70 depending on weather. Temputure is around 80 ish with lights off and up to 88~92f with lights on. Plants are looking pretty healthy but i think the growth can be faster if the temps were better.

Now that i got few more pc fans and inline fan i had some question on where i should put them.

My current grow space is inside a closet which within the closet i made a small section for the plants. So it have 1 door closing the whole room which i cant open at all unless one or two hours at night.
Than i have inside the closet a space with a black garbage bag using it as a "door".

I currently have a small table fan and 3 4inch pc fans blowing directly at the plants and they are at the wall blowing towards the opening. Now today i got 3 more pc fans and a bathroom inline fan. I left the exhaust fan on the floor by the opposite side of the fans blowing sucking air out than i covered it with the garbage bag closing the space. So basically all fans are blowing and the inline is exhausting hot air but i have no air coming in from the rest of the closet which is pretty big and has cooler air. Should i use the pc fans to intake air into the grow space?
Is this a good setup or what else would you prefer?
I know what i wrote is hard to understand but look at the picture below to get a easy idea.
Any comments or what i need to do would be great.!

Those temps are too high. You can get away with them in veg but they will be bad in flower. What's the temp in the room itself? Fans move air around but they don't really cool it. Sounds to me like to need more AC in the room, then you can work on getting that cool air into the closet.

and your exhaust fan needs to be up high as heat rises...and is it truly exhausting air out of the closet?
