Hello all. This is my first time posting although I am have been lurking for quite some time. There's definitely some great info on this forum and some very experienced growers so I'm really hoping for some help.
I have have moved into my new apartment and am at the start of a new grow. I am using the two closets in my bedroom -- one for veg and one for flowering. They are side by side, seperated by a drywall wall. The closets are about 2' wide by 5' long by 8' high.
Right now I am using a 400w MH for the veg closet with 25 two week old plants under it. I have 2 plants under CFLs about two weeks away from harvest in the flowering closet. I have a 400w HPS which would love to use for flowering but don't want to hook up until I have the ventilation set up correctly.
I own an Active Air 6" 400 cfm inline fan, several small desk fans, one of those plastic Stanley blower fans (which moves a surprising amount of air!) and a crappy 6" duct booster fan from Home Depot.
I am wondering how I can use some (or all) of these fans to most efficiently ventilate my closets, so that I can hook up the 400w MH lamp in the one closet and the 400w HPS in the other and keep my temps nice and cool in both rooms?
Right now I have the inline fan inside the flowering closet connected with a t-shaped duct which is simultaneously pulling air out of the veg closet and the flowering closet and out through a hole in the wall to the outside. There are desk fans in both closets blowing on the plants to help promote air circulation.
Sorry if this post his been a been a bit long to read through, but I really do want to get this right. Thank you all for your help in advance.
