Two separate airflow circuits.
The green line is for cooling the ballast and hood only. The hood is sealed so no filtration is needed there (although I might add a simple carbon filter element for extra odor protection and dust filtration).
The blue and red lines are the other airflow circuit. The size and exact location of the cab intakes and in-cab air flow ports are not determined. The diagram is just a rough representation of the general pattern of flow. The upper left port feeding the scrubber box would actually be a tube extending to the top of the flower chamber to pull air from up there.
Here's an alternate arrangement that swaps the location of the scrubber box and the ballast box. Maybe this is better/simpler? It would be easier to pull air from the top of the flower chamber this way.
The general idea is to remove as much heat as possible (light and ballast). I received one suggestion of having the veg box exhaust into the flower box instead of directly into the scrubber box. This might create a more circular pattern of air flow. My reservation about that is I didn't want heat from the veg box to add to the flower box. I'm considering incorporating both ideas---> Drawing most of the veg exhaust into the flower box but leave one small exhaust at the top of the veg chamber leading directly into the scrubber box.
