just run CO2 and put an AC unit in there then you dont have to circulate the air, it will be rich with CO2 and cool thats the only reason why people circulate the air anyway.
 
for kid: what is daucting?

First off,we have to know what lights you plan to use or any advice given is just off the top,the size of you closet in feet or yards would really help this dumb american.When I went to school the powers that be didnt see it necessary to teach me what the rest of the world would be using lol.Anyway depending on what your using,leaving the door wide open and an oscillating fan may be all thats needed.Hell i can run my 800W combo sun systems fixture that way it runs so cool,it really depends on your lights and the size of the closet.If you cant put a bathroom fan in the ceiling than you cant,simple as that.There are other ways to get around it,even if you have fresh air coming in from the living room or something thats plenty of co2 to grow your plants,then they make co2 themselves when the lights go off.Having fresh air is best when not using a sealed room,but you'd be surprised what you can get away with many folks just thnik the co2 gets used up much faster than it actually does.An oscillating fan on the plants is a must

yeah i would use an 400 hpsagro for all the process and yes i want to put fans in it and even a big of that one thath you use in the summertime(i cant get the name..)
so you think thath living the door open and all fans it will be ok? and for the smell how can i do? my closet is nearly 2 meters for 2

I veg in a closet about 8 by 3,I have a window AC on the opposite side of the room with an air circulator(large fan)directly in front of the cold air ducts and on low setting,the air circulator will carry the cold air the 10 ft right into the closet,I use an ocillating fan just a couple ft in front of the plants to help carry it through.This time of year I use the air circulator and oscillating fans but I dont need the AC to be on.Remember,75 degrees is ideal but at 85 or even 90 with a lot of airflow,you still can veg some pretty nice plants.You must keep temps lower than that for flower though

get a portable a/c for around 100$, then spend another 100% on a decent dehumidifier. It is much cheaper than say... co2, granted not the same results but a proper fix just the same.
 
holy shit i wasn't calculated all this money for recicling the air....a cheaper way ?i think i just let the door open then...at my risk ...

Put 4in hole in the floor under the carpet. Save the 4in piece of floor and put it back when you go. Why would your friends landlord will be pulling up carpet in closets when he moves out? :confused:

Does this have to be "stealth"? Buy a cheap door from the Depot and replace it, hole saw the door
