yes, but what about exhausting into the wall? would it actually work to get rid of the hot air? or am i looking at a moldy wall and studs?
Through the wall?

yep people say exhaust into the attic, or draw from, why not the wall?
it's really that or the window, but im getting "no" vibes from the window. not a fan of exhausting out the window in 'winter'

All interior and exterior walls are capped off at the top, usually with 2 2x4s. So if you want to vent into the attic via the wall, you would have to drill some holes through the stacked 2x4s.
This is assuming your dwelling is built to code.

Um... if you think you can push air into your wall and have it exit at some point, you must have a verrry cold house. The inside of that wall should be sealed up nice and tight so you can stay warm at night.
As for the mold, that would depend on the humidity of your exhausted air.

well it's an apartment.
a friend of mine exhausts into his ceiling, but he's on the top floor, so i guess that constitutes some sort of vacuous area for the air to dissipate in...
im in the ground floor, and need somewhere else to vent into than the front of the building window near the front entrance.
so i was thinking id drill a hole in the wall behind the tent and pump it in there, the air would rise, hopefully somewhere else.
i had a look in the wall and theyre empty, fairly anyways, no insulation wtf? and it's a 40-45 year old apartment building.

silent lemon I live on the second floor of a 3 story apartment building and i vent my A/c exhaust into the cieling via a 6 inch hole I cut into the drywall. there is is about a 2 foot space inbetween floors and i guess all the hot air dissipated through the building somehow out vents in the roof or something
The a/c exhaust blows very hard and hot and this works pretty good I've been doing it for 2 years so I don't see why you couldn't do the smame thing with a small fan to cool your light

looking spiffy mate! i have basically the same thing going on here now. i think im totally going to drill it into the ceiling. i wonder if rushing air is easily heard underfloor?
My a/c is pretty loud and it blows hot exhaust like mother and I have people living on the other side of the wall.
I actually had the opputunity to check the sound in the ajacent apartment, it was empty at the time so I was able to turn on my A/c and gp around to the other apartments with shared walls and I couildn't hear a dam thing so I think you should be fine

45 year old apartment with little insulation in the walls compared to your....
edit - the upstairs tenants are vacuuming...SO LOUD.

I live in a warm climate so I don't think there is insulation in the walls or inbetween floors
When I cut the hole into the cieling drywall there was about 2 foot gap between floors and i could see some braces supporting the floor and plywood which I guess is the sub flloor of the upstairs apartment
The apartment complex is prob 20 years old
this is in the U.S

do you live in California?
do you live in California?
go to a doctor and get your 215 paperwork. my Doctor allows me less than 90 plants and 6 pounds of dried flowers.

SO this is my "Fo" Closet. The pics will take you through the closet into my veg room. My flower room is at the end of the veg room inside a closet. Check out my current grow in my sig to see more.

Peace.
One of the hardest parts of apt growing is learning to let go.
Sometimes you have to ditch your grow 6 weeks in to flowering and walk away with no regrets.
It's all about the mentality.
Safety and freedom ALWAYS outweight weed.
You can always crop out a few times a year.
