Hello. first post of many more to come 
i live in a town house (kinda like a condo i guess) im a renter so i cant really make any mods that i wont be able to restore to its original state
im working with a 400w mh light with ballast
weather outside is around 80-100 degrees so the heat adds to the closet light heat and i cant afford to run the A/c all day
-Closet is L 6ft x W 2ft x H 8ft = 96cm
-Double sliding doors
i just want to get everything primmed and ready for some plants before i blow more moola on seeds again
i ordered 3 strains and i rushed to germ them. when i realized the light in the closet was way too hot it was too late. I didnt think it through enough the first time. i put the seeds next to my window (80-95 degrees?) in two clear dixie cups to lock moisture, and the heat toasted my alcapulco gold sprout in 2 days
I brought it back to health but it was growing only one leaf and suffering. I killed it and im ready to try again, but i want to actually make it work this time
what im asking is how would i go into venting my closet. when the light is on it hits up to 95 degrees at night time with the door slightly opened.
i was thinking about putting a bathroom vent fan in the roof but i dont know if i would be able to fix it back, and i would like to put a carbon filter into the vent if possible
could i vent from the ballast straight up into the roof?
