hi guys i could really use some help......

so what i have is a veg box... its really small..... 8 sq. ft. of space and only 2 ft hight.....
im using 6500k cfl's......
and i got a 10" fan exhaust...... i take in air from my room.....

at the moment my temp is stable at 25 C.... but in the next few months its gona get really hot...... 45 C outside :-(

my box is made out of tin...... and the intake is ducted to my room a/c.... so im sure ill manage to last out the HOT summer in my veg box.......

now the main question is where i should build my flowering room......

i have a cool tube 250 W HPS and ill use a few 2700K CFL's for side lighting and power saving...

i have two options......
A. i use a cabinet in my room...... its abt 6 ft high with 12 sq. ft of growing space...... but i cant figure out any exhaust system for it....... i can cool my room to like 27 C and leave the door to the cabinet open most of the time but ill have to completely close it some of the time.... and im scared that when i close the doors for like a few hrs ill roste the girls.....

B.my other option is outside my room with no a/c but a lot of space..... i wont really have to worry abt light leaks...... and ill have a lot space to move the air around......
i can afford to get a desert cooler but those will increase the humidity lvl's a lot.....

ive been hitting my head with this problem for the last 2 months!!!! now my seeds have become mothers..... and the roots to the first of their clones is visiable......

i need to make a choice soon...

any and all advice would b really apreciated

thx
