Adding in second tent, need advice on exhausting

Hey so I'm adding in a second tent and I'm wondering what the best way to exhaust both tents will be.

I already have one running in my basement and the second will go right next to it. My basement has an unused chimney that I rigged ducting to for the first tent. It's the only exhaust port I can hook ducting to, so it must be used.

I want to just split the exhaust ducting with a Y joint but since they will be on separate lighting schedules, I'm worried that some of the heat will exhaust into tent 1, from tent 2,when tent 1s lights shut off. Is this irrational? Or is there something I need to do, like add a little inline fan to tent 1s exhaust ducting before it hits the Y?

Sorry if that's confusing, I'm bad at explaining things, but basically if you had 2 tent on different lighting schedules and only 1 exhaust port, how would you set it up? And if it makes a difference, I'll be adding a third tent eventually.

build a vacuum box out of mdf, put the ballasts, fan and filter in, and you can pull air in/out via ducting. Dont use a y, just make more holes.
