First closet grow, in need of tips!

[whswakboardz71]

Alright, so my set up is a 400 watt MH over 5 plants in a closet 3 1/2ft. x 2ft. Everything seems to be going fine except ventilation. I'm at about 85 degrees F and 40% humidity. I have a tall skinny 3 foot fan blowing out the crack of the door. This had brought my temps down from 90 degrees F. I Also have a 6in. fan blowing towards the gap in between the plants and the light. I have read and been researching many forums and posts about this same sort of situation. I am just curious as to what can be done in my OWN situation. I cannot make holes anywhere as i live in an apartment. Now my budget is ok, but i would like to know if there is anything easy, craftful, cheap, or something that i should obviously do that i do not know about being a beginner. Sorry for the lengthiness but i like to be detailed. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I would love to keep this thread going with updates and new questions and concerns i have. I will post pictures also.

Sorry for the quality of this picture but others wont be as bad. I used my phone for this one. I have a digital camera that i need to buy a new cord for.

I just set up my light in this picture and it is a couple days old ill be sure to get updated ones up here.

thanks again

i have a similar situation with the temps and never found any solutions but to remove my door. btw your pic is all fucked up because the ballast asuming its magnetic it creates a magnetic field which fucks up my camera too

i think i may have my solution. take off the little plates on my reflector hook an intake and exhaust line out the door. cover my light up with a glass slide in piece. and put an inline fan like a vortex or something on the intake or exhaust line pointing which way? but doing this should solve my problem...right? or am i way off
