also i wonder how much fresh air you will get it seems to me like theres not alot of air flow underneath the house. do you have central heat and air?

if i were to grow in a closet i would look into co2 that way you cut out the need for a intake. also the co2 is more effective when the temp is higher

I would open the window in your room or sum where in your house close to the room and have a fan piggy back air to your closet. just leave the door open when the light are on. i did that one time with sum chem dog and did great with a little 400 hps

Yes i do have central but dont use unless its real hott, theres an ac in the window 2 big oscilating fans, 1 small one on the ground, 2 small fans under the lights, and the fan blowing air in , and theres not really much for bugs under the house but i do need to screen it

you forgot to put a number before cfm. keep the fan your using with the lights on on all the time and the pull should suck air up through your system you devised with the crawl space. if you can keep the temps in check and put a fan on the plants you should be fine assuming the fan w/the lighting is large enough. how many cfm is it?

There in the room i use the closet to vent, and i just cut a foot off the bottom of closet door so that fan will blow it in the room, my prob is mildew i had it before and it came back, has to be from bad air flow because my temps are good humidity is ok and windowis sealed up, al i gots the closet

But thats 1 of my 2 options, my other is to put some kind of exhaust fan in the top of the closet to pull air up into the attic , just not sure option 2 will work

I just pulled everything out of the room 2 days ago and sprayed the shit out of each plant, then cut that door and added that fan, im hoping that works before they get too far into flowering
