Exhaust always necessary, intake for a small amount of plants is enough just opening the door daily...

If door open than Intake. Becouse the breeze will move plants and they will become stronger. Thicker main steam

Can I close the door of my closet?
My tent is located in a closet kind of room (5x2 meters) and I was wondering if could close the door during the night because the fan is a bit noisy. Will it fill the room with exhaust air/humidity and damage everything inside (the plant, also the clothes that are in the room)?

How to reduce humidity in my grow space?
I'm just an amateur and am growing in my closet as I have very limited space. It's a small space in which I can't cut holes or openings. I use a small fan and a air purifier. Should I get more fans? Does a carbon filter or inline duct help if it can't exit out of the closet?

Currently using a 4x8 tent in a garage that is dusty. would getting a extra intake be better for my plants?
Currently using a 200mm inline exhaust with a max cfm of 537,96 and using a intake with a max cfm of 194. currently using the exhaust on medium setting so 466 cfm. would it be better for my plants to get more air from outside with a new but small intake of about 128 cfm ?

Now getting condesation in my tent when I've added this duct to a pipe exiting the house? Am near harvest too.
Didn't have an issue with condensation inside the tent before, now that I've attached the duct to a pipe going out i'm getting condensation inside... Does the set up look right? I've hooked up to a smaller tent too via a T. Could it be pressure?

Is it bad if the Fan makes 200m3 but the Carbon Filter is only for 100m3? Do I need to change it as quickly as possible? (Tent 60x60x160)
