I wanted to use a couple of LEDS for veg when I start up again, thinking of getting a T5 to compare results...what sort of wattage do you think I'd need for my 1.2m x 1.2m?A single 4ft T5 unit would do the trick you think?
If your vegging in a grow tent and got a digi ballast that adjustable just get the lowest wattage mh bulb so either a 250 or 400 will do the trick nicely. I use t5s because I use separate micro tents for veg if I had only space for a single tent I would defo go down the mh route for veg then just swap the bulb and crank it up when u wanna flip

I have space for 2...so maybe I need a smaller tent for veg? I could just grow them to 2ft because I'm looking to get a perpetual harvest started...my LED panels are cheap and between them produce probably around 200-250w...enough?

I'm looking to get a micro tent just like you say.

Belive it or not ikea have started selling a few little hydro bits and 1 thing that stood out was the racks and led lights maybe have a little look I didn't get any spec on how many watts maybe worth a look though they was only about £20 maybe £30 each
