I have a similar set up. I have 2 fans though, one pulling air out of the flower tent exhausting to outside, and one pulling out of the veg tent that goes into flower tent. almost 5x5 flower tent, 3x3 veg tent, fans are 450scfm each.

Vegging plants want a bit more humidty and also you cant try to recycle co2 that way??? im no expert just that was my logic

My veg tent exit is right next to the CO2 bag

the exhaust fan will work better if you move it to the left. When it goes straight into a 90 right off the fan it will drastically reduce the efficiency. Always try to have as long of a straight duct run before any turns before and after the fan

Can you elaborate, (im running 24hours of light for veg)
Just saying a way to get around having vents open is having an empty duct tube not hooked to anything going into one of the ports. You can bend it or point it a certain way so light doesnt escape. So if you did that for your veg tent on 24hrs you could have your flower vents open and no light will come from the veg tent.

Yeah so the flower tent on the left has the bottom left vent open like you said with ducting. no fan, but on top top of the flower tent is my exhaust with a filter pulling into top of the veg tent which is on the right, then at bottom of veg tent is another vent open
