Veg tent is 2x2x3. Recommendations for properly sized led. Trying to upgrade from cfl's

Budget?

Not a huge amount since it's gonna be a pretty small light. Not looking for a mars or viparspectra, more of like the sun board strips or something similar. Don't really know much about these things, so i don't want to burn seedlings and clones up. While I also dont want my veg plats heading to flower all stretchy

What flowering light source will you be using?

315w cmh in a 4x2.5x5 tent

Is the hlg 100 overpowered for my tent size? I know the description says it will veg a 3x3 area, but I'm limited on height and don't want to burn anything up

I believe you'd be better off with this.
The 3000k will veg just fine.

Ordered it this morning. Thank you for the recommendation. Do you use this light?

Start at 24” for young seedlings .... typical hang height for grow is about 18”.

Single quantum will cover a 2x2 effectively.

Right on. Thanks

Question on my own veg tent, will the hlg 100 cover a 4x3? Site suggests footprint or 3x3, will there be huge loss?
