Hey all. I'm currently setting up a closet grow with white rhino and blue mystik from Nirvanna. My goal is to have a perpetual grow with a rubbermaid container that I will purchase and set up later. I've purchased a 2x2.5x5'11 gorilla tent and it fits perfectly in a closet space I have but I have a ventilation issue. My intake will be coming in the side of the tent which sits about 3-4 inches away from one of the folding style closet doors. Due to door style not sealing the closet well I feel like this should be sufficient room for intake but would like input from others who may have had this issue. I currently have a 2 foot four bulb T5 Lighting it and with no exhaust fans (yet) it stays 79 at plant level and 81 at light level. I have yet to turn on my air conditioning inside this summer and it gets kinda warm inside the house during the day so I don't feel like heat will be an issue after I get some air moving. I want to get an exhaust thats big enough I could potentially use it for a slightly larger tent aswell as a dimmable HID light. I was looking at getting a 6 inch vortex s-line fan with a controller and slow it down so I can run quiet. Would this be too much for the tent size or can the controllers slow it down enough to make it a viable option? Also when choosing a light would a dimmable 400w HID/HPS combo be too much for the tent size once I got some ventilation going or should I go with a 250?
