You cant really say about the outcome. Depends on if you keep it up and how bad off the plants are. Research growing methods and ride it out. Good luck.

Dear All
I'am just starting in growing my own plant. however i really need some advise from you all...
I currently have:
1. 1- 800-watt MH and HPS dual lighting system.
2. 1- floro lights 2 bars (seedlings, clones)
3. 1- Co2 generator
4. 1- ozone generator ( smell/air cleaner)
5. 1- regular fan
My grow room is about 5L x 4W x 7 tall
my major problems is that i have to keep the closet closed. but there are
no vents or window in the closet. does any of you have any suggestions on
what to do to keep tempreture down? (should i get a smaller light?)
or will the fan be enough?
i'am planing to grow about 15 plants per rotation. i will have 2 stages.
please help i need to set up in a month

well i'm not an expert but if the temperature gets too hot like above the mid 80's it will have to be vented. with a co2 unit, and a light that puts out quite a bit of heat i'm just guessing but i'm almost sure you'll need a vent fan like in a bathroom. i would try it and see how it goes as is, but keep in mind what is possible if the temp. is too high. good luck!

Haha 800W MH, good lord! Keep the AC running 18/6 or w/e your light timer is set to XD that's what I do...closet is half the size, MH is 400W. Good luck!

If u dont get some serious ventiltion you´ll end up with the same prob as the dude that started the topic (u will scorch ur plants)...u need to get an air intake an air exhaust and a fan to keep the air moving around, otherwise u will have some serious heat probs and ur plants wont like...btw whats the co2 generator for in such a small area????do u really need it???

i have about the same grow area in a closet with 2 400 w lites , i exhaust into the roof and hav 2 fans for circulation and on hot days heat is a problem . i hav a ac vent not far away so im going to pipe into my closet and im lucky enough to be able to zone my ac aswell , if your c02 generator runs off propane or natural gas heat will be a major problem , i use c02 enricha twice a nite and i swear between boosts you can really notice the plants grown , would recomend to all growers !!
