How much light do I need in a plant nursery?

Hey.
Not quite the right place for this question but I will give it a go.
I think you are about 4 square feet (Amercian here) so that would
be about 120 - 150 watts or so, there are charts all over the net.
Good luck

Hi Guys,

I'm designing a little nursery box where I want to start my seeds and grow young plants for about 3 weeks.

The box will be made in white styrofoam and will be 50x50x50cm in dimensions.

I'm thinking about using white cob led stripes attached to the roof of the box. The question is how much light do I need to grow from seeds or to root clones and grow for few weeks?
Led stripes producer show me the actual power of the stripes in Lumens or watt (both consumption and light output).

Can you tell me how many lumens (or watts) do I need in a 50x50cm area?
