Works Well.
You can vent out the back or side of the closet into an adjoining room. A small vent, 6 inches round, is not very visible. if you paint a fancy cover the color of the wall most people wont notice the new addition. You should also cut (or have cut) the door just a bit shorter on the bottom so that would become your PASSIVE VENT. Tape a piece of cardboard to the bottom of the door to prevent light leakage.
You then get
duct tape
Poster Board
some flexible dryer duct
12" 3 speed Fan.
From the Poster Board make a cone "\ /" where the Wide end = 12 inches in diameter and the small end = six inches. Duct tape it really good all over the outside.
Attach the dryer duct to the 6 inch side of the cone
Duct tape the wide end of the cone to the 12 desk fan with the fan blowing into the cones end.
Mount the fan somewhere near the plants or your greatest heat source.
Run the dryer duct through the wall into an adjoining room (preferably behind a piece of furniture)
Place a nice pretty vent cover over the hole and act like it was always there. You can always just spackle and paint over it before you move out if you need to.
Hope this Helps.
