I have mostly everything for my upcoming grow ready besides ventilation. Once the two 6 inch inline duct fans arrive, I'll be putting one through the ceiling with a winding flexible duct to the outside (to ensure no light can enter), and the intake fan will be constructed the same way, pulling air from the adjacent room into the grow room through a flexible duct.
I will be running a 600 watt HPS in a 5'x2'x7.7' (LxWxH) space. The fans are rated at 250 cfm.
I have never grown using HID lighting before so I'm not quite sure how much ventilation I need, but taking into account the small area, a 6 inch intake and exhaust seems like it should cool the room plenty. Even with the heat of a 600w HPS, those size fans seem like they would do the trick.
These are the fans I will be installing:

Do you guys think this should be adequate ventilation or will I likely need more to keep the temperatures in check at all times?
