I actually have mine set up so that it is outside of the box blowing in through a hole. that seems to work better as it allows more fresh air to enter the grow environment. I recommend that if it is possible for you.

Ok got some more questions. So far i have had them on a 24/0 light schedule but just got a timer today and thinking of changing to 18/6. Aslo i got some nutrients for veg 24-8-16 but the soil i am using says that it has organic fertilizer that feeds up to 3 months. what do you guys think?

Its allways better to suck out the old air and pull new air in. Don't push fresh air in, and just having a fan to circulate the air is not enough.
I would try to set up a fan on the out side and suck air out. If you have cracks and crevest in your design it will pull air in thru those and really cycle your air.

They look far too immature to withstand any fertilization at this point. If the soil contained nutes that will feed as long as they advertise then I wouldn't put in anything except water until they should signs of a deficiency, possibly 2-3 months from now. Quickest way to the demise of any young plant is to "kill 'em with kindness."

im still kind new to this. but my say in it is just wait it out for about a week or two because the plants are too small right now and the might give it nutrient burn. are you planning on switching them to a bigger cabinet or something? or using lst or scrog? i say that because most likely the plants might outgrow that cabinet. and about the heating issue get two or three computer fans and use them to bring fresh air in and hot air out. the fan that takes hot air out should be towards the top and the one that brings hot air in should be towards the bottom of the cabinet. hope this helps man.
ps. dude did you like punch the hole in their to release the heat? lol

It's kinda hard to see in this picture but the box I have now does get bigger..right now they are just on a shelf to be closer to the light. I do plan on using some sort of lst or scrog so they dont get too tall. LOL but as far as the hole its not a punch hole but a bunch of drill holes put together to bring fresh air in..looks like crap i know..
