I have grown for several years in a closet then in a 5ft x 2.5 ft. tent. I haven't grown for over a year because of a move but I plan to start again in a few months in my new space. I will only be growing 2 plants per grow each in 3 gallon pots probably in a gorilla 2 ft. x 2.5 ft. tent with Lumigrow LEDs (maybe 400 - 600 watts as I have two.) The tent will be placed in a 3ft x 7ft closet. I want to put the tent at one end of the closet arranged so the 2.5 ft. length of the tent is up against the 3 ft. width of the closet. Doing so provides only 6 inches of space between where the 6 " 400 cfm fan exhausts from the tent and the closet wall.
My question is will the limited amount of space between the wall and the tent interfere with the air flow from the tent to the extent that flow out of the tent will be affected? I'm thinking that the blow back off the closet wall or the turbulent air conditions within the 6 inch exhaust distance could adversely affect the flow of air out of the tent.
Should I be concerned about this issue? If it is a factor I'd place the 2.5 length of the tent against the 7 ft. closet wall. I prefer to use the 3 ft. closet wall however for stealth reasons as I could insert a thin wall or covering between the tent tucked away flush against one end of the closet and the rest of the closet so if an unauthorized person opens the closet door they would not see a gorilla tent.
Any help on this matter is appreciated as I am starting to put the new grow area together to be ready for an autumn run.
