First grow room question.

I'm working on setting up for first grow tent and don't know what to do with lighting. I have a 2'x2'x4' grow tent and I have a 200cfm 6" fan up top for exhaust with carbon filter. This setup will be small for either 1 or 2 plants. I wanted to go hps but I didn't know if I'd have heat issues in the tent I have with my ventilation setup. So I was going to go cfl. I know hps is better but don't know if I have space for it. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.

thank you!!

Sounds like you have everything you need but the light....it's a lot more to it than most folks think especially the first time.Hopefully you've got some outside grows under your belt that makes it easier well it did for me anyway
You will make mistakes you will burn shit up you will cost yourself money but when you do fine tune your process and you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor there aren't many things that will compare to that first harvest......my advice to you is start small CFL's will do the trick there is a lot of info out there but it can be overwhelming ....so make up your mind what direction you want to go roll up your sleeves and go for it........good luck to you !

lights are investments

since u are only a 2x2 a HID light is not worth it becuase of the heat it makes CFLs and T5s your power is limited ................go LED

since this is LED..............u have to make other choice now
1 Photo strains or Auto strain (this effects the light u would get)
