First time grower, doubts about closet setup / Extraction, help apreciated

[Noze1]

Hi everyone

First let me apologise for my bad english, ill try to explain my setup, intencions and thoughts about what im hoping to be a reasonable "first attempt" in indoor growing.
Much of what I Know is from diggin various forums, reading a lot and watchin videos, being exhange some thoughts in portuguese forums but its time for some opinions because im kinda stuck in here
Pretty sure that this has got to be tha place to be to solve this
Basically ive build a 2x2x4inches / 60x60120cm ´cab in MDF hoping this could be enough for maybe 2 plants, using a cooltube to drop temperatures from a 150w HPS,
The all ideia would be to hide the closet in a dresser.. as I can show yo guys later in some photos

Ill be growin 2 Northern Lights Auto Fem from Nirvana and i me tryng to do all things right by the start.
Be using 120w CFLs 6500k for Veg and the HPS for flowering, gotta be careful with smell and energy consuption, so i decided for this setup, the dresser kinda acts like a sencond hide out and smell blocker for the closet , althougt i ll be leaving one door from the closet open for the exaust air coming from the tube and for the intake tube that will be conected to the closet.

Right now my cab is like this

My biggest concern is to where to put the extractor fan and the carbon filter, it would be great if i can squeeze them inside the closet, beacuse of smell and sound, but aparently there is no space.
Im about to buy an RVK E2A1 125 extractor fan with 220m3/h wich measures 25cm (large) 30cm (tall), and a 300 m3 coco carbon filter from Prima klima with 40cm heigh and 20cm width (large), so its total is 70cm heigh and 25 width. i ve only like 15 cm from the cooltube to the back wall and I guess i wont be able to rise the lamp much more than it is right now, like 40cm from ceiling
Ill pu the electricity extension cord that you see in the photo outside the closet..

What can I do to suck warm air from the closet trough the cootube, passing the exaust tube to a carbon filter and beeing pulled by the extractor, all inside the closet?
I was thinkin in connecting a tube to the right side of the cooltube going towards the corner of the closet, connecting to the filter (inside the closet) and leaving the closet trougth the extractor, that is fixed on outside roof of the closet.. ive thoug of tilt / put the cooltube facing a corner, like crossed in the square..to leave more space in one corner..
but then i guess that simply putting both the filter can and the extractor outside the closet would be much simple but id love to put all thins inside tle closet.

Ive seen much "homebox XS", (that measures the same) but cant apply none of the setups ive seen to my grow.
I'd love to hear from ya guys,

Thanks in advance,

Definitely not a lot of room for the cooltube in there.... hrmmmm

To me it looks like you have enough space in there to run the lamp without the cooltube. 220m3/hr is around 600+ cfm... right guys? That can't be right... that'd be a jet engine in that size...

If you have enough airflow from the fan... your goal is to figure out where your intakes will be. How many and how big each intake needs to be will depend on the fan you have.

I'd say hook the fan up without the cooltube and then play around with your intakes. Once you have everything set up and running, do temperature checks over 24 hours and see how hot/cold it gets.
Make sure you have the air-scrubber attached during your tests.

You'll want the cab to be cool enough that a hot day with broken air-conditioning isn't going to be an issue. Give yourself a little bit of a buffer.

If it turns out to be too hot, I like the extra range of movement you'll have with the lamp... if you go diagonal like your last picture.

Stay Safe!

edit: I ran a 42" wide x 22" deep cabinet with two 150w HPS lamps for a while. Bare lamps with reflectix on the cab roof instead of hoods. You'll need a hood but your results will be the same.

Hard to say what you 'should' get, as it looks like you're limited in terms of space. I would suggest you try a few things out this time around, and see what works for you - and what doesn't.

It's a bit of trial and error in the beginning, though the only thing I've done (almost) since the beginning is use Advanced Nutrients. So, outside of that, I feel a little strange about tellign folks how to set up their room.

I like what you've done with the place, though, so far.
