Recommendations for Equipment, Tents, and LED Lights

I'm only going to need enough coverage for one or two plants max. I'm not looking to start a big operation, I just need a steady personal supply. I'll be the first to admit I don't have a "full" setup, but I've done the best with what I've been able to get together over some months.

I'm not an established member - can't even see the resource post instructing how you can become one - so I can't make a grow journal yet. I started this plant from a seed, and germinated it the first week of April so it was in a planter and sprouted around 4/10.

I started off with Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil mix. Supplemented for a while with Grow Big on the seedling schedule, and bumped it up to heavy feeding at around 6 weeks. One or two leaves started to show signs of nute burn about five days ago, so someone at a local grow shop suggested I cut the dosage in half which I did. I've since picked up Big Bloom to introduce, and switched to ProMix since it's not as hot and I'd be adding two bottled nutes anyway.

It was recommended already that I pick up Golden Tree. Do any other experienced growers have tips in terms of where to look for tents and lights? My ideal setup would be to get a tent large enough to have a cycle of one veg/one flower at a time. Nothing too big or too fancy. Links to info about monitoring things like humidity and such are also welcome.

Here are some pictures of what I have so far. Any and all advice and constructive criticism is appreciated!

Amazon. Check Ohuhu grow tents. 4' X 4' for $72 delivered.

Amazon for lights. Suggest digital ballast sets with metal halide and high pressure sodium bulbs, a cheap reflector and hangers. 600 to 1000 watts and dimmable. Less than $150 delivered

I'm not experienced with budget LED lights but others here are. I've smoked some good results from bud grown totally under LED.
