If you're not into diy I'd go with a hlg 550 or hlg 600. Also have a look at timber lights or some other led kits around. Check the sixstring's thread for more info

400W of quantum boards would crush it in there. Piss on the 600w hps.

If you want 4 plants going at all times you'll need a second tent to have the next batch vegging. Make sure you've got the room, you'll be surprised what it looks like assembled, first person.

I'd go quantum boards on that footprint and get wall to wall coverage.

You can do it with a shop light in corner or closet. It doesnt have to be light proof and smell is not a big deal in veg

That's a 65W light. Could probably match 100W hps.

4x qb288 on a hlg-480h-48 should do the trick.

Some material to build a frame and possibly heatsinks. But running each of those boards at 50W you won't need heatsinks.

I built me a small 2x2.5x2.5' weg box with quantum like boards at 150w. Those are rigid strips populated with 96 leds each running at about 25W a pop



I ordered those from china but are populated with the exact same chips as quantum boards.
