I have a 4x2x1.5 grow tent and it's next to my window with a window fan. I'm currently using a 400 watt hps bulb, if I just put a fan in the grow tent, would that cover it for ventalation?

no you gotta move at least 200cfm to keep that small of a space cooled with a 400. does the light have a vented hood? if not, its gonna be tough without piping in some cool air.

exhaust on top with a smaller passive intake on bottom. don't use cpu fans, they are noisy and don't hold a good vacuum.

firstly MOVE THAT GROW TENT AWAY FROM YOUR WINDOW IT WONT MAKE ANY DIFFRENCE AND PEOPLE MIGHT SEE IT AND GROW TENTS ARE EASY TO MAKE OUT/........SERIOUSLY?

u need to buy a extractor turn it bakwards so it can suk fresh air into the tent buy a dryer tube them plastic things on the bak of a tumble dryer feed that from the inlet extractor to the window

3rdly bu a propper 12 inch oscelating fan the cheap as chips im running 140mm coolermaster fans in my pc and in a grow tent hmmm i think not!lol
