Closet Circulation

How do you guys do it? I'm doing mega research for my first closet grow, and I have the light fixture, but no cooling/circulation ideas.
PS, no punching holes in my wall
Stay high, kids.

Nothing at the moment. I was thinking about this:


400 watt High Pressure Sodium Grow Light System

"An incredible value, this High Pressure Sodium 400 watt grow light system includes a top quality HPS ballast, super efficient reflector hood, and high performance lamp / grow light bulb. This is a better value in grow lights than you would find at any other hydroponics store."

I grow in a closet and I use an A/C light fixture. Meaning it has a piece of insulated glass to help with the heat. I also keep two fans blowing 24/7. Once I start a crop , I don't turn them off until harvest day.

yes leave it open.and close it during the dark hours and when people come over..i dont see any other way sence you dont want to cut holes in the walls...

I suppose I could cut a hole in the other lamp I posted on the side opposite from the bulb, and run duct with a little fan in it out somewhere..
It's not airtight like the cool tube, but It would do a little bit of cooling. It also costs a whole lot less.
Thanks for the inspiration, bro

Even better is, run your light at NIGHT, when it's cooler. (unless you run your AC all the time, anyway).

Seriously, if you cant cut a hole and vent the heat OUT, you will HAVE to leave the closet door open PLUS having a fan blowing OUT. You cant close that door....it will be over 100 degrees in there. If you're worried about company dropping in, you can close the door IF yourun your light ONLY at nigh. Of course, you cant have company after 7 PM, LOL.

That's a good idea, the whole only night at light thing.
