I am planning on growing 2 plants in a roughly 6x6x10 ft closet. I plan on only using cfls probably about 6-8 total with some high wattage ones around 150. what kind of cooling system/something for the smell would be easiest and cheapest but get the job done?

Maybe you should grow some northern lights or something with a low odor if your worried...

your gonna need about double the cfls than what u have now if u want to have a good setup.

10 27 watt cfl and 4 40 watt cfls.

its all about lumen output... and for the time and energy you can buy a 150 watt hps or 250 watt.

well you will need an exhaust system. the carbon filters are gettin cheap but its possible if you might be able to get a tower filter or something since u only gonna have a couple plants

youd be suprised on the odor of just one plant..can look into some ona gel for a small palcebut will defneed exhaust system.need an inline fan with carbon filter if your gonna do all that get a grow tent in tha closet so you can control the enviroment.

carbon filter is what you need for the smell in a grow cabinet but those are pretty expensive.your using cfls so $$ is obviously an issue. with cfls cooling cost you 0$$.before i spend $$ on all that stuff (fans,duct carbon filter,etc.) i spend $$$ on some better lighting .

sorry, i got away from the issue.use a dryer sheet in between the vent and filter on your A/C intake and change it every day use 1 a day,you get 60 days worth of great air freshening for about 5 bucks. and it overpowers the smell of weed in its greatest ripeness,good luck
