Use enough fresh air to fill that space at least 5 times a minute, OH wait is that 4' length or 2' length.

OK, Krypton...we're going to need more info.
1. Can you run a/C into the closet in any manner?
2. Can you alter the closet e.g. cut a hole or two?
3. What's above the closet?
Think about what you have to work with that will create a flow. This is just the beginning....you'll prolly need to deal with both temp and humidity...nothing that can't be overcome unless you are extremely restricted.
What strain and what's your lighting?
We are all here to help. Anyone who flames should be ignored......

i grow just fine with no ventilation other than me openen the closet 2 or 3 times, for little 5 min visits (who doesn't love visitin their girls?) 1 plant a time though or you will get too much humidity.Oh and just keep a oscillating desk fan running all the time or on a timer to come on and go off in 15 min intervals.This will help with what humidity you have with 1 plant

This will come up, too, what do you use to handle the odor? A spray? Just curious. Like I said...we needed more info. Glad you can do it your way OK.

Alright, pretty soon i'm going to be living with my parents. i haven't really looked around inside of the closet so i cant give much details. im trying to keep a low profile so cutting my closet door wouldn't be a good idea. i think there may be an ac vent inside but im not quite sure. i haven't gotten any supplies, but im working on getting them. i plan on getting a 3 or 4 foot t5 or t8 along with 6500k and 3000k lamps.

For odor control i heard something about lemon grass oil. have a bucket filled with water, put a few drops on top, then have a fan blowing over the waters surface. sounds like a good method to me.

Being that I am 64 I honestly do not recommend you grow in your parents house without their blessing...the parent in me talking. Your lighting won't cause much of a noticible spike in the bill. CFL will give off some heat, but not muxh. You'll still need some ventilation and pro;;y ona gel like smokejoint uses.
Get back to us when you have more info.

Yeah I am. I was a week over 16 (1964 at a Goose's party (motorcycle gang that a buddy belonged to). It was at Edgewater Park in Cleveland...a bit scary at times LOL.
I haven't grown anything in years, but I bought more stuff than most people have....waiting in my garage for the right place and time.

alright well i talked to my parent's and they're fine with it. i'm going to be growing one plant at a time so do you think an oscillating fan or two would be good enough for ventilation ? plus opening the closet every once and awhile, lets say 5 mins for each visit on the crop
