LED lighting for veg+bloom question in a baby 50cmX50cmX100cm tent..??

What off the shelf plug and play LED light? and why? would you use or recommend

Or better off with cfl??

Was thinking of building some LED strip lights or cobs but just cant wrap my baked brain around it..

Unless there is a simple diy cob kit i can manage?
An easy to follow instruction manual with a parts list to buy and how to assemble.??

I know its a super mini area but im keen to give it a crack

Keeping in mind that it could.. be used soley for veg and clones but also with a strong possibility of using for a small flower run thru summer as the room does have a/c which is a bonus.

Also does a veg/flower mode need to be a consideration??

Looking foward to hearing all ya input and advice.

Happy growing

Well , any light capable of doing both veg and flower would be ideal, esp in a tent that small. I’d go with a vipar 700, led. It has adjustable light output and red blue white all that can be dimmed.
So in theory can be used from seedling through flower for up to 3 plants. Or a tent 2x4 length by width.
