BkSkillz is an unknown quantity at this point
air circulation is important...but equally important is that it be fresh air circulation not just the same stagnant closet air...i'd sedgjest figurign out how tomake a ventilation system where fresh air would be pumped from the outside of the grow chamber pumping air in and also the fan inside of the grow chamber pumping air out...best of luck

You need to find a way to get air OUT of that closet. Can you make holes in the wall, the closet door, ceiling? Is the growroom air/light tight? You can run some dryer hose with an inline fan to exhaust the air, you just have to figure out where.

thanx not yet (odor) but Im gonna see what I can do I was able to drop the temp down to 80 - 85 by leaving the closet door wide open with the window ac on in the room, my plan wasnt to leave the closet door open but it was able to drop the temps down, and the little guys seem to be doing fine now there only 3days old now so I'll just have and wait i guess and see what my next prob will be

Heat rises.. you need to remove the heat from the top and input fresh air at the bottom

yea... i use a 3sq.ft x 4ft tall box and just a few computer case fans do me good enough... but then again i only use a 150w

intake near the botttom, exhaust out the top.. .fresh air is more important than circulating air... you can circulate all the stagnant air you want, but if theres no co2, the plant dies... fresh air intake is quite enough to provide sufficient co2 in a small garden
