doing a small closet grow, personal, no more than 2 mature plants at a time.
The closet is fairly small, about 5.5 feet tall, 2 feet wide and 4 feet long.
I do not need the entire closest, and basically was wondering if it would be better to build a box to put inside the closet, and run my exhaust out of that, or just turn the entire closet into a greenhouse environment.
closet is in the attic of the house, there is a crawlspace that isnt insulated, so there is fresh air i can pull into the room through the wall. which hopefully will be able to keep it cool enough and a good supply of new air.
If i go with the box i would prob make a frame out of 2x4s and cover it with that white/black plastic. as long as it is airtight i can attach the carbon filter to the exhaust. I also wouldnt have to worry about light leaking from the closet door because the box will block all light. Im not sure where i would put the exhaust though. the intake will go through the wall into the box, would it be okay to put the exhaust in the same wall? i dont want the hot exhaust air to get mixed with the cool intake air. also wat about passive intakes? ive always used intake fans before but wondered if i should look into it. basically 1fan for intake 1 fan for exhaust OR 2 for exhaust with a passive intake.
been shooting ideas around for awhile in my head but thought i could get some help on the brainstorming. this is only my 3rd grow. i know a little but ive never done a closet grow like this with the closet itself being so small.
any comments would be appreciated! no pics...mostly because i dont really have anything to take picutres of at this point
