I am growing in a small space anyway I can 1) remain undetected/ stop the smell 2) reduce the heat from my envirolite bulb, it gets hot on one of the walls. Any ideas/help would be good. Thanks

No ventilation. No space for it. Is possible to use 2 fans and place them each end of the space to cool it down? I have already germinated the seeds and I wanted to start tonight.

That would be ventilation! :D

Keep one fan located as high up in the room as possible, blowing hot air out. And keep the other low, pulling fresh air in to cool the lights and replace the air around the plants. May not be optimal, but it'll circulate the air. Good luck. :jointsmile:

can you install something like this? Add a fan to the end to pull in fresh cooler air?Broan Wall Vent Kit - WVK1A at The Home Depot (http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100345157)
