First grow in a GL40 Tent. Some questions ;)

Just purchased a GL40 tent for a closet grow. My closet is tiny, and since it's my first grow I wanted to go a cheaper route so I can see how this goes. :bigjoint:

The dimensions of the tent are 1'4" x 1'4" x 3'11.

For lighting I was going to use the Reflector + 6400k 125 watt bulb here, I have another 2700K 125 watt bulb in my cart as well for vegging.

Would this carry me through a grow? I'm planning on running a scrog to maximum yield, I believe flowering at 125 watt will be ideal but I'm not sure how 125 watt will work for vegging. It's not a big tent but I should still be able to put the light a good ways away.

I believe it has passive intake, and since I haven't seen the tent yet I haven't purchased an exhaust fan yet, but I plan on getting an exhaust fan for the tent to create negative pressure and attaching a carbon scrubber on it to kill odor.

Do the lights look good for this setup? If anyone has an experience with the exhaust on the tent and can recommend a fan that'd be appreciated too.

Also recs on nutes/soil are always appreciated. :bigjoint: Thanks guys.
