Hi everyone,
I am getting back into growing my own medicine after moving locations and I have some questions for you pros out there.
I am growing within a closet within a room that I reside in. I have a DR80 3'x3' grow tent that is going in there with a 400w HPS Sun System I air cooled hood, it will also be remote ballasted outside of the closet to help with temps.
I only have one really close window that unfortunately faces what looks like my neighbors window. I have a portable A/C unit that vents there already as well, and while that seems ok, I worry about venting tent exhaust in the same area.
What I was thinking was how feasible is it to cut a hole (5") in the ceiling and perhaps feed a sheetmetal duct tubing through and vent that way? I looked and it seemed like the roof has a large vent near by. My only concern is cutting through old fiberglass/insulation, and perhaps letting any pets in until I get the ducting installed. I would probably install some mesh along the duct to prevent anything in the future from getting in.
Outside it looked like my room was an addition and I see what looks like support beams with around 6-7" inches between that I could try to aim between for the vent.
Thanks in advance!
