Basicly i dont have any kind of vetalation going on at all. During the lights on period i keep the door ajar and have box fan air bouncing off a wall into the box, moving the plants around.

During lights off i just shut the door and toss a blanket over the box to prevent the light from my room seeping in. How bad is this going to fuck my plant up in the long run?

Temps are never an issue either way.

Mold could ruin your whole crop, gotta keep air circulating and humidity in check.
Shit, would dropping a small table fan inside there combat the issue? There are spots where air will go out, like where it isnt light proof but where the blanket is.

I don't ventilate when the lights are off, but my humidity is low. Mine are fine so far but I do plan to turn them on more if humidity creeps up.

The humidity is naturally lower in when the lights are out, although when the heat drops after your lights go out you will have some condensation. Do you monitor the humidity? And what is your set up, growing in dirt is less humid cause you may not have allot of water resivoirs and such.
