I'm such a newb when it comes to this

is there a guide you can point me towards?
I fail at using the search (dunno what to type in)

Do I buy the carbon filter that is 4inches?Can Filter 2600 4" -
Do I need to buy 4" Metallic Vent Ducting - 25' -

Also I should probably get cooling for my HPS hood yes? Does that need a separate fan of itself?
There is a lot of information in these 2 post:

If you want to have a filter that match the fan you'll need to go with an 4 inch, you could always buy a 6 inch and a reducer, this give you the chance to go bigger one day... The products you choose seems quite good. You should consider getting a fan in this tent to get the air moving around. Personnally I got a cool tube so I don't worry too much about the lamp heat. In you're case the best solution may be to install the exhaust just over the lamp, like that it will suck the hot air out. You can check my setup, I've just installed the tent yesterday: http://boards.cannabis.com/grow-log/...new-setup.html

Hope this help you out.
