right now im using some cardboard nygahh rigged vent that gets intake from under the door, it works, kinda. not enough power to shut the door completely, if i do my temps skyrocket in minutes. i got a 250w mh dome flood light and im running 12/12 in early flower.
my buddy just hooked me up with 2 105cfm 4" cooling fans, these things are pimpin but im not getting and ideas on how to run them.
maybe have them both for exaust and setup the dome with ventilation?

anyway to have a stealth door with ventilation? id be willing cut the door if i found a superstealthy vent.

just a random idea:
get a door sized poster (the tall ones that fit the door). buld a frame for it. Suspend the frame a half inch off the door with a small 1/2 inch block at each corner in between the frame and door. stretch the poster tight across the frame with some posterboard backing (for stiffness). This will let you choose exactly how many square inches of intake you have. Every 2 inches lengthwise will be equal to 1 sq. inch of ventilation. This might be stealthty for ya.

spreading seed: yea, im pretty sure thats what he meant, or maybe a shitty job or something, something that might fall apart soon. i hate sounding so easily offended, but i wish he'd choose some different words
on the other hand, maybe hes of african origin and is just commenting that its something he put together himself
 
yeah the n-word is pretty taboo.
whos jerry??
does he do shitty work or what?
i like make shift.
that leaves every one else out of your own craftmenship.

i'm guessing you meant "ghetto-rigged" . i do agree with the others , "nigger", "chink", "wop", "chug" , etc., etc., etc., are words designed to offend.

P.S. cardboard and the N-word dont have much place in a grow.

Youre not allowed to use that word! Only "they" are allowed to use that word and they do--to each other! (go figure).

See if you can get a clothes dryer hose and vent assembley from the hardware store. If you can get a 4" inch adapter to JB Weld or epoxy that computer fan to, then you can mount the assembley, fan and hose to the door. Route the hose towards the top of the room where the heat is at. Get a thermostat like a CAP TMP-1 to control it coming on and off to maintain that sweet 77 degrees. You also need a vent fan too--to vent the hot moist air out of the grow room.

irishsoco i like that idea but that 1/2" may be kinda noticable, one of the problems that im having is the door opens right next to the closet and the lightswitch is right next to the closet too. so im trying to keep anything out of the ordinary nowhere near knob level.
mackawber that is what im going for, if i can keep a constant flow of cool air from the ground up i could cool the box as efficiently as i can without making a "cooldome" and "coolballast".
anyone know if these fans will be able to move air through a filter and/or carbon scrubber?
my thoughts said:
funny how white people are offended by the word nigger. i mean wtf is wrong with you all? i swear people would rather see "mother fucker" or "baby eater", how much sence does that make? its just an expression, extremely old one in fact, and yes i said that to express how shitty my vent is. so if you cant help, dont post, i dont care about all your immature opinions on racism! no apologies!
 
I like the disscusion on politically correct phrases, expecially on a mj forum.

Five - have you thought about maybe cutting into the ceiling and venting that way?

yea i have, i have no attic in my house and id rather not cut a bunch of holes in the house. there is one small hole in the corner of the closet where it looks like a mouse came in. i know there is some ventilation through that area (if i cut a hole in the wall) but it may not be worth it if no air can get through.. i would HAVE to filter it
 
I have a similar situation. I know that i have some very small attic space above so I cut a hole in the ceiling and when I have to leave I will just make it look like there was a vent there.
